FOURTH SUNDAY OF EASTER
IV DOMINGO DE PASCUA
May 8, 2022 ● 8 de mayo de 2022
A FORETASTE OF PARADISE
Throughout Easter Time, the Church rejoices with
Jesus, risen from the dead. Our readings on this
Fourth Sunday of Easter celebrate our instinct to
come together in joy, worshiping in church. While
private prayer nourishes our individual relation-
ship with the Lord, community prayer is a fore-
taste of paradise. The book of Revelation depicts a
“great multitude” worshiping God “day and night
in his temple.” Our churches on Easter Sunday
often reflect this happy multitude, filling the pews
to bursting. Four Sundays into the festive season,
we are encouraged to keep praising God together.
In the Acts of the Apostles, Paul and Barnabas
demonstrate their instinct to worship with their
faith community each Sabbath, dutifully taking
their seats in the synagogue. In the Gospel, Jesus
calls us his sheep and reminds us why coming to-
gether as a flock is so important: uniting in com-
munity, we imitate the unity of God.
