In today’s homily, Father Jerry tells the story of a 12- and 15-year pair of sisters who are part of a 13-month study for Moderna’s coronavirus vaccine.

Let us pray. By your grace, O loving God, may we be about the work of Easter, to be signs of Your love and forgiveness in our midst, to bring healing and hope to all our brothers and sisters, to restore those entombed by despair and fear, to the fullness of Easter life.
