Dear friends in Jesus,
May I take this opportunity to wish all the readers of the Catholic Doors Ministry's monthly newsletter a continued Holy Lent and a blessed Easter. Easter is the principal Feast of the ecclesiastical year. Pope Leo I (Sermo xlvii in Exodum) called it the greatest Feast, and said that Christmas is celebrated only in preparation for Easter. Commemorating the slaying of the true Lamb of God and the Resurrection of Christ, the corner-stone upon which faith is built, Easter is also the oldest Feast of the Christian Church, as old as Christianity, the connecting link between the Old and New Testaments. Accordingly, the Church calls us to celebrate Easter with other members of our local Church.
During March, 2006, the Catholic Doors Ministry website enjoyed ongoing additions in the areas of its Guest Book, a new Bible Course, homilies and prayers. The prayers section of the website continues to be the most visited. It has around 400,000 webpages that are being downloaded each month.
I pray that the month of April shall enrich you all with an abundance of Heavenly blessings.
In the love of Jesus and Mary,
Jonn,
webmaster.
