ALLELUIA, ALLELUIA, ALLELUIA!
This Easter day, we celebrate the Ressurection of our Lord, Jesus Christ! The stone was rolled back this day and the Son of Man came forth for all to believe in the promise of eternal life.
SATURDAY, MAY 6TH, FROM 1-4 PM, Emmaus Ministry “opens its doors” for you to tour the new St. Marianne Cope Center for Outreach, located at 4335 S. Salina Street in Syracuse! The new facility provides a beautiful gathering space to “welcome the stranger; a commercial kitchen to feed the hungry; a shower; washer and dryer; food pantry; a winter clothing, boot and sock closet; and service retreat space. The new facility will house all Emmaus’ current services to the Catholic Charities’ Men’s and Women’s Shelters, and the Bishop Foery Foundation.
On May 6th from 1-4 PM, come through Emmaus’ “open doors” and see how the presence of our Resurrected Lord and His unconditional, all-encompassing love and mercy has moved Emmaus Ministry to a new calling to serve the poor, hungry and homeless!

Thank you!
Today’s first reading from Isaiah 58: 6-9, gives us another aspect of fasting, of how we can indeed seek and find God.
“This, rather, is the fasting that I wish: releasing those bound unjustly, untying the thongs of the yoke; Setting free the oppressed, breaking every yoke; Sharing your bread with the hungry, sheltering the oppressed and the homeless; Clothing the naked when you see them, and not turning your back on your own. Then your light shall break forth like the dawn, and your wound shall quickly be healed; Your vindication shall go before you, and the glory of the LORD shall be your rear guard. Then you shall call, and the LORD will answer, you shall cry for help, and he will say: Here I am!”
