Brothers,,
First of all, happy Easter to you and your family. It truly is a joyous occasion to celebrate the resurrection of our Lord with you, and I'm truly grateful that you joined us on this journey through Lent.
May this Easter be full of joy, peace, and time well-spent with your families.
It doesn't end here. Watch my last video with Fr. Ken Geraci below.

After a season of sacrifice, discipline, and turning back to God, Easter shows us what all of it was for: deeper union with Christ and a renewed life in Him.
When we enter Lent seriously, denying ourselves, confronting sin, and embracing the tension, we don't just arrive at Easter with relief, but with a greater capacity for joy.
What was once ordinary becomes full again. What was dulled by comfort becomes alive.
But the real question is what comes next. Will you slip back into the patterns you left behind, or will you continue walking with Christ? In this conversation, Fr. Ken Geraci and John Heinen challenge men to see Easter not as a finish line, but as a commissioning.
The apostles didn't fully understand at first, they hesitated, doubted, and had to be called forward. You're no different.
This Easter season is an opportunity to prepare for Pentecost, to open yourself to the Holy Spirit, to let the grace of the sacraments take deeper root, and to live with conviction that Christ is not just risen, but reigning.
The path forward is clear: no turning back, no divided life, just a steady walk with Him.
