Resident Poet
‘The
Good
News’
Susanne Cabrini Marie
Orland Park resident
One Friday we condemned
Lord Jesus
to a horrid death.
Yet He still loved us
up until His very last
breath!
Long ago, a lamb
was considered the
perfect sacrifice,
Atoning for the
peoples’ sins, the
poor creature paid
the price.
Christ, The Lamb of
God, offered Himself
for the people’s sins,
Once and for all
redeeming those who
trust and believe in
Him!
In His Sacrament
of The Eucharist,
through the priest,
He bids us to dine,
And nourishes us
with His Body and
Blood, which looks
like bread and wine!
Holy Communion
unites us to Jesus up
in heaven above,
And to The Father
and The Holy
Spirit—The Trinity
of Love!
Happy Easter.
