For the people
Great Cloud of Witnesses
Today’s second reading speaks of a great cloud of witnesses, perhaps referring to the large number of Christians who gave witness to their faith through their words and actions. Baptized in the Lord, we are those witnesses now. Looking around and seeing our faith community gathered here today, let us think of ourselves as a “great cloud of witnesses,” assured of each other’s support and encouragement as we live out our discipleship to the Lord.

The Transfiguration
Like Advent, Lent is a season of preparation—in this case, for Jesus’ ultimate sacrifice and the glory of his resurrection. We prepare our souls through repentance and our bodies through fasting. We prepare our relationship with God through prayer and our relationship with others through almsgiving.
In today’s reading, in the midst of all our preparation, we are given a preview of Christ’s risen glory when he appears transfigured to Peter, John, and James. May the promise of a life transfigured encourage us as we continue to prepare for Easter glory
