Parish News for the 3rd Sunday of Easter

April 16, 2026 by Oliver Baldwin in Weekly News

This Sunday is the 3rd Sunday of Easter. In the Gospel reading we hear of Jesus encountering two of his disciples on the road to Emmaus. As we journey on our earthly pilgrimage, let us return once again to our encounter with Jesus in the Mass: ‘he was known to them in the breaking of the bread.’
