Easter Sunday is God’s answer to the despair Jesus’ first disciples faced and it is God’s answer to the deafening silence and distressing void which fills our lives now, Perth Archbishop Timothy Costelloe SDB has said in his 2020 Easter message.
Thousands of Catholics from across the Archdiocese of Perth have virtually attended this year’s Palm Sunday Mass online on 5 April, streamed live from St Mary’s Cathedral.
On Easter Sunday last year, more than 250 were killed and at least 450 were injured in vicious bombings at three Christian churches, four hotels, and a housing complex in Sri Lanka.
