The word Alleluia is made up of two Hebrew words that mean "Praise the Lord." We know that the foundation of our faith is based on the mystery and the wonder of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

If you look at the first reading of today's Mass, you hear Peter, a witness to the Resurrection, giving a sermon to Gentiles; once again letting them know that God has no favorites and loves us all -- and challenges us to do the same.

A happy mantra for us in our daily life could be "Praise the Lord."
