April 2022
When they entered the tomb, they saw a young man clothed in a white robe sitting on the right side.
The women were shocked, but the angel said,
“Don’t be alarmed. You are looking for Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified.
He isn’t here! He is risen from the dead!
Mark 16:5-6
He is risen! He is risen indeed!
Let’s celebrate and worship our risen Lord,
our dear Good, Great, and Chief Shepherd!
What Happened in MARCH
Saturday evening, when the Sabbath ended, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome went out and purchased burial spices so they could anoint Jesus’ body. Very early on Sunday morning, just at sunrise, they went to the tomb. On the way they were asking each other, “Who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance to the tomb?” But as they arrived, they looked up and saw that the stone, which was very large, had already been rolled aside.
Mark 16:1-4
What's Next
“…Now go and tell his disciples, including Peter, that Jesus is going ahead of you to Galilee.
You will see him there, just as he told you before he died.”
