THE FIFTH SUNDAY OF EASTER
APRIL 25th, 2016 - Feast of Saint Mark. The second Gospel
was written by St. Mark, who, in the New Testament, is
sometimes called John Mark. Both he and his mother, Mary, were
highly esteemed in the early Church, and his mother's house in
Jerusalem served as a meeting place for Christians there.
St. Mark was associated with St. Paul and St. Barnabas (who
was Mark's cousin) on their missionary journey through the
island of Cyprus. Later he accompanied St. Barnabas alone. We
know also that he was in Rome with St. Peter and St. Paul.
Tradition ascribes to him the founding of the Church in
Alexandria.
St. Mark wrote the second Gospel, probably in Rome sometime
before the year 60 A.D.; he wrote it in Greek for the Gentile
converts to Christianity. Tradition tells us that St. Mark was
requested by the Romans to set down the teachings of St. Peter.
This seems to be confirmed by the position which St. Peter has
in this Gospel. In this way the second Gospel is a record of the
life of Jesus as seen through the eyes of the Prince of the
Apostles. His feast day is April 25. He is the patron saint of
notaries.

PIĄTA NIEDZIELA OKRESU WIELKANOCNEGO
Świętowanie Wielkanocy jest nie tylko celebracją
zmartwychwstania Chrystusa, ale także zapowiedzią i obietnicą
ostatecznego triumfu królestwa Bożego na końcu czasów. Jest to
jednocześnie obietnica spełnienia naszych najgłębszych tęsknot
za miłością i trwałym szczęściem. Jesteśmy zaproszeni do tego,
by już tu, na ziemi, zacząć wchodzić w tę rzeczywistość. Każda
Eucharystia jest objawieniem darmowej i nieskończonej miłości
Boga. Możemy ją przyjąć i pozwolić, by przemieniała nas ona
wewnętrznie i czyniła coraz bardziej podobnymi do Chrystusa.
