CALLED AGAIN BY THE RISEN LORD
On this Third Sunday of Easter, we are drawn into a beautiful and intimate encounter between the Risen Jesus and His disciples at the Sea of Galilee. After the trauma of the Passion and the confusion that followed, the disciples return to their old trade—fishing. But the Risen Lord does not leave them in their discouragement. He meets them in the ordinariness of their lives, offers them nourishment, and gently restores their hope.
In a special way, Jesus renews the call of Peter, not through grand speeches, but through a simple question asked three times: “Do you love me?” This moment of grace reminds us that Jesus never tires of calling us back to Himself, no matter how far we drift. His love is patient, restorative, and full of purpose.
As we celebrate this Sunday’s liturgy, we are invited to recognize the presence of the Risen Christ in our midst—in our work, our communities, and especially in the Eucharist. Let us listen attentively to His voice and be ready to respond, like Peter, with love and renewed commitment.
We are happy to share with you the liturgical resources for this Sunday to help you prepare and animate your celebration with depth and devotion. May our hearts be open to the Lord who calls us again and again to rise and follow Him.
