Message for this Easter season – A call for unity and fidelity
As we enter the Easter season, Father Thierry Hénault-Morel, Rector of the Sanctuary, invites us to delve deeper into the meaning of the Resurrection. In profound meditation, we are called to share an essential message: life is stronger than death.
Easter is not just a past celebration; it's a journey that begins. Through this video, discover how the message of the risen Christ can transform our perspective on the world and our relationships.
La Croix: At the crossroads of two loyalties
This message highlights a powerful aspect of the Passion and Resurrection: the double loyalty of Christ.
- Vertical loyalty: Despite the darkness and the feeling of abandonment (" Why did you abandon me? "), Jesus remained inextricably linked to his Father.
- Horizontal loyalty: In the midst of suffering, he never considered his tormentors as enemies, asking for forgiveness for them.
It is this dual commitment that unites humanity today and invites us never to "let go" of either God or our brothers.
Mary Magdalene: The Apostle of Reconciliation
The video revisits the figure of Mary Magdalene, the first to encounter the Risen Christ. By receiving the mission to go and find her brothers and sisters, she becomes the bridge between Christ and the Church. Her message is simple yet radical: we are all connected to the same Father, making us, in effect, brothers and sisters.
"Let us try to experience this profound unity, this reconciliation of humanity with God, as a reflection of Jesus' victory over the evil that divides."
