Jesus leapt back to the earth to be with his disciples.
From the earth he leapt up to Heaven; from Heaven he

leapt (and leaps) into our hearts.
If ever there is a day we should dance and leap, it
is Easter Sunday. This is our triumphant day. Christ, the

SUNDAY
YOUR WORSHIP AID
In the First Reading, from the Acts of the Apostles (10:34-43), Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit and with a renewed
sense of confidence, stands up and boldly and retells the story of Jesus’ baptism, his public ministry, death and
Resurrection. Peter lists himself as a witness to all these wondrous events. He concludes by stating that all—through
faith and repentance—now have access to the salvation that Jesus has come to bring. The Second Reading is from the
first Letter of Saint Paul to the Corinthians (5:6-8). Recalling the Jewish Passover that Jesus performed as a memorial
of his own saving death, the apostles instructs his community: “Get rid of the old yeast to make of yourselves fresh
dough, unleavened loaves.” Those who share in the feast must put aside everything that is corrupt, like the old leaven
that Paul calls “the yeast of malice and wickedness.” The Gospel Reading for Easter Sunday is from the Gospel of John
(20:1-9). The Gospel states that Jesus’ disciples still did not understand the Scripture, a comment that reminds us of
another scene in the Gospel of John. When Jesus was in Jerusalem for the celebration of Passover, he had said:
“Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.” The evangelist explains that Jesus was speaking of the temple
of his body, and that when Jesus was raised form the dead, his disciples remembered, and “they came to believe the
scripture and the word Jesus had spoken.” Yet, neither the empty tomb nor the burial cloths give them the
understanding of the scriptures. The risen Jesus himself will provide the understanding.

LORD OF THE DANCE SING TO THE MOUNTAINS
Sing to the mountains, sing to the sea.
I danced in the morning when the world was begun Raise your voices, lift your hearts!
And I danced in the moon and the stars and the sun. This is the day the Lord has made.
And I came down from heaven and I danced on the earth Let all the earth rejoice!
At Bethlehem I had my birth. I will give thanks to you, my Lord.
“Dance, then, wherever you may be, You have answered my plea.
I am the Lord of the dance,” said he. You have saved my soul from death.
“I’ll lead you all wherever you may be, You are my strength and my song.
I will lead you all in the Dance,” said he. This is the day that the Lord has made.
I danced for the scribe and the Pharisee Let us be glad and rejoice.
But they would not dance and they wouldn’t follow me; Death has lost and all is life!
I danced for the fishermen, for James and for John; Sing of the glory of God!
They came with me and the dance went on. Text: Psalm 118, Dufford

We are so happy you are here at Saint Juliana for Mass! We encourage you to sit up in the front pews so you
can see what is happening. Also feel free to sit up in the balcony. Parents, don’t worry if you come in late or
need to go to the back for a timeout, and especially don’t worry if you make noise during the service. Your
presence adds so much to our community. Children, feel free to use this page to color during Mass and take
home with you. We hope your family experiences Jesus!You can also read
