_________________________________________________
The four New Testament Gospels aren’t the same story, but they offer the same Resurrection hope. Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John devote most of their story detailing Jesus’ last week in Jerusalem, all highlighting Jesus’ triumphant entry into the city, the suffering and humiliation of the cross, and the empty tomb come Sunday morning, but the stories they tell aren’t quite the same.
Each Gospel offers a different lens through which we understand Jesus’ Passion. One portrait reveals Jesus to be in control, while another emphasizes his suffering. In one story Jesus offers hope to the thief on the cross, and in another Jesus only receives derision. These different perspectives aren’t a reason to dismiss the Gospels; rather they reveal an abundant, diverse, and complementary picture of God’s work in the suffering, death, and resurrection of Jesus.

St. Vincent’s Center for Children with Disabilities, Haiti, was mostly destroyed and its equipment stolen during the recent civil unrest. Thanks to outside support, they have now constructed several small buildings that are equipped to serve as treatment centers.
“The Dioceses of Connecticut (spurred by Trinity Parish in Wethersfield), New Hampshire, and North Dakota contributed extra-budgetary funds to purchase medical equipment.” (From their Spring Newsletter).
