In our meditation of the week: Fr. Donncha Ó hAodha reflects on the overflowing joy and wonder of Christ’s Resurrection and the living presence of the Risen Lord in the Church, in creation, and in our daily lives.

Fr. Donncha invites us to rediscover the Church as the living presence of Christ among us - a gift that is not the result of human effort, but the action of the Risen Lord in history. He reflects on how the Church, sustained by grace and alive through the sacraments, is not something we create but something we receive. It is through this divine life - pulsating in our vocation and in the ordinary moments of daily life - that Christ continues to reach the world.

We are reminded that the Resurrection is not only a historical event but the very lifeblood of Christian existence. Through grace, we are divinized - participants in the vibrant, risen life of Jesus. Therefore, each moment of love and faithfulness becomes a channel of Christ’s life into the world. As a result, we are called to rejoice, to evangelize with our lives, and to recognize the hidden holiness in the most ordinary of circumstances where Christ is truly present.
