Dear Catholic Online Community and Catholic Online School students... I AM HAPPY TO OFFER EACH OF YOU AN INVITATION TO HOLY MASS ON THE FIFTH SUNDAY OF EASTER in the Catholic Diocese of Tyler. The response to offering these liturgies online has been overwhelming. The readings, as always, offer so much for us to reflect on. It is helpful to pray through them and reflect upon them before we assist at Holy Mass. In our first reading on this Fifth Sunday of Easter we continue in the Acts of the Apostles, the historic account of the early Church. Chapter nine tells the story of the wonderful conversion of Saul, the Rabbi who was persecuting the early Christians.
