The crucified, dead, but alive-again Christ, is the hope of all people. He is risen with the power to change lives. He has overcome the weaknesses and brokenness which grip the human race. He reigns as Lord, the one with authority to lead us. He is the infinite reference point to guide our lives, and the near at hand friend to heal us.

@Creation
When Adam and Eve disobeyed God and sinned, God made garments of skin to cloth them from their shame. Genesis 3

circa 2000BC
Abraham obedience even to the point of not withhelding his son, his only son, from God had resulted in a covenant that "through your offspring all nations on earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed me." God provided a ram as sacrifice in place of Isaac. Genesis 22

circa 1500BC
Passover lamb, which was sacrificed and its blood put over the doorposts as a sign of faith, so that the Lord passed over the houses of the Jews during the last plague poured out on the Egyptians - the killing of every firstborn except for those of the house of Israel. Exodus 12

@Easter
Jesus bacame the Passover Lamb who took away the sin of the world. *

Salvation belongs to our God,
   who sits on the throne,
   and to the Lamb. Revelation 7:12

Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain,
   to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength
   and honor and glory and praise! Revelation 5:12

Message from Archbishop Hickey

Have a safe Easter - receive Jesus Christ into your life.

One lesson we can learn from the earthquakes in Chile and Haiti is the obvious need to be prepared for impending disaster at all times.
Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour says Jesus to his disciples when he foretold of impending disasters and if those days had not been cut short, no human being would be saved is our Lord's assurance of his return for the sake of his elect.

Bills of Right are being passed by states and nations in recent years particularly in the western democracies with the good intention of protecting minority rights on racial, religious and sexual grounds. However, experience had shown that the new legislative power is being used to undermine the constitutional rights of freedom of expression enshrined in all democracies. By this bill which is passing through the Federal Parliament one's expression of faith can be considered as discriminatory to another person's faith. Christians are being encouraged to actively express their faith and often this very act can be interpreted under the new legislation as an infringment of privacy and discriminatory. Syaria laws in its core are prohibitions that shut the believer from interacting in any meaningful ways with infidels and this is an affront to democracy.
