"Something strange is happening today...". That line, taken from an ancient homily on Holy Saturday, speaks well to what we are experiencing in out world today. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, our life has changed for the moment. On top of everything else, the suspension of Masses with a congregation brings with it a great deal of sadness, anxiety, and even anger. Through it all, however, God is with us. Jesus Christ comes to us in the midst of our pain and suffering, and he calls us to follow him. He is the Light of the World, and he will lead us out of darkness into his own wonderful light.
