Religion

We continue celebrating the Easter Season, full of joy and gratitude for the gift of salvation we have received in Christ Jesus.

This past Sunday in our church we focused on the gospel of St. John 10:11-18. Jesus said, “I am the Good Shepherd.” I remember learning that the image of Jesus as Shepherd was the one first used in the early church. The faithful of the pristine church understood from lived experience the horror of the Roman death sentence.
