Welcome to All Saints Catholic Parish Website in Greenwood, Western Australia and a Blessed and Happy Easter to you all. Truly, Jesus is the Son of God, our Lord and Savior for He is Risen from the dead.   To all of you and your families, may I implore you to approach this Holy Season with hearts and minds full of Joy with the knowledge that we are worthy of the Love that Christ showed us, in His Great Sacrifice.

Easter symbolizes the renewal of life, faith and love.  May the Spirit of the Lord fill your home this Easter and all the rest of your days. Let us all remember that Easter is more than just eggs, chocolates and candy.  It is also about peace, love and family.  May you pray together to the risen Lord, Jesus to rise into your hearts and bring you new life.

From now on, may you try to avoid all forms of hatred, gossip, and ill feelings.  Let us allow Jesus to be rooted in all our actions, thoughts, words and intentions.  Let us all remember what the Resurrection of Jesus brings, namely; it dispels all evil, washes guilt away, forgives our sins, restores lost innocence, brings mourners joy; it casts out hatred, brings us peace and humbles earthly pride.

During the Easter season, I invite you to pray the Regina Caeli, the joyful Marian antiphon of the Easter season, dating back to the 10th century:

Queen of heaven, rejoice, alleluia.

The Son whom you merited to bear, alleluia,

Has risen as he said, alleluia.

Rejoice and be glad, O Virgin Mary, alleluia!

For the Lord has truly risen, alleluia.

Again, Happy Easter to all and may the Risen Lord bless you abundantly and bring lots of happiness to you and your family.
