After all, in 2009 Pope Benedict XVI's urged the users of the internet to
"......bear witness to your faith through the digital world!......Employ these new technologies to make the Gospel known, so that the Good News of God’s infinite love for all people, will resound in new ways across our increasingly technological world!"

CHRIST IS RISEN,

ALLELUIA, ALLELUIA!On this Easter Day, from the all on the C&SI teams we wish you and yours every blessing of this Blessed Day!
On this weeks podcast we are delighted to welcome back our old friend Noirin Lynch to share with us some thoughts on Easter, hope and resurrection.
In part one we have some regular notices but no saints of the week this week as it is the Easter Octave which takes precedence over everything else!
In part three Noirin joins John and Shane to reflect on Luke 24:1-12 which is Luke's account of the going of the Women to the Tomb on Easter morning. It recounts the experience of the group which have been given the title of the Myrrh Bearers - Joanna, Mary of Magdala, Salome, Mary & Martha, Mary the wife of Clophas and Susanna - the first witnesses to the great events we celebrate.
Reflecting on Hope in Easter
Noirin Lynch joins with us this week to share a reflection on Easter. Speaking from her experience of living with and getting treatment for cancer for the last 12 months it is from that experience she shares with our listeners how the language of life transforms our experience and understanding of Easter. But even more so at the moment we have a need for the language of Easter to pull us out of the doom spiral of despair in the world. It is a reminder to us that "Easter is a protect against despair", it is not enough for us to say that Jesus has risen from the dead but rather we live in a post Resurrection world and that should make a difference. Reflecting on Kim Rosen's poem "In impossible darkness" Noirin gives us some deeply moving and thoughtful words to reflect on for this Eastertide.

- C&SI - Pausing to reflect on Holy Week - 13 Apr 2025 (S05E20b) (podcast excerpt)
We have come towards the end of our Lenten journey this year and with the celebration of Palm Sunday we enter into Holy Week and begin to accompany Our Lord towards his Passion, Death and Resurrection.
On the podcast this week we take a slightly different turn and in an extended part 2, starting with Luke's account of the entry into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday we have a reflection and some sharing about the days ahead and how the liturgies we participate in help us to navigate and enter into the great mysteries which we are about to commemorate.

- C&SI - Mary's Stations of the Cross - 6 April 2025 (S05E19b) (podcast excerpt)
On this week's podcast excerpt we begin to turn our attention to the passion, death and resurrection of Jesus by prayerfully reflecting on the Stations of the Cross. For our reflection we are using Mary's Way of the Cross by Richard G. Furey C.Ss.R. This Way of the Cross takes us through each station through the eyes and heart and mind of Our Blessed Mother - Mary, the Mother of God and our Mother too. As Richard says "Mary stood by her Son throughout His passion, and in her faith, experienced the joy of His resurrection".

In part one we have our regular run through the up coming liturgical odds and ends. In part three we have our reflection on the Sunday gospel which is John's account of Jesus and the Woman caught in adultery which continues the theme of God's mercy from last Sunday's gospel of the Prodigal Son.
