PRELUDE
“Christ the Lord is Risen Today” arr. Stephen Bulla
“Alleluia” Michael John Trotta
READING: JOHN 20:1-18 | 9a Sarah Noel & 11a Sharon Marshall
Early on the first day of the week, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene came
to the tomb and saw that the stone had been removed from the tomb. So she
ran and went to Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one whom Jesus loved,
and said to them, “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we do not
know where they have laid Him.” Then Peter and the other disciple set out and
went toward the tomb. The two were running together, but the other disciple
outran Peter and reached the tomb first. He bent down to look in and saw
the linen wrappings lying there, but he did not go in. Then Simon Peter came,
following him, and went into the tomb. He saw the linen wrappings lying there,
and the cloth that had been on Jesus’ head, not lying with the linen wrappings
but rolled up in a place by itself. Then the other disciple, who reached the tomb
first, also went in, and he saw and believed; for as yet they did not understand
the Scripture, that He must rise from the dead. Then the disciples returned to
their homes.
But Mary stood weeping outside the tomb. As she wept, she bent over to look
into the tomb; and she saw two angels in white, sitting where the body of Jesus
had been lying, one at the head and the other at the feet. They said to her,
“Woman, why are you weeping?” She said to them, “They have taken away
my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid Him.” When she had said
this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but she did not know
that it was Jesus. Jesus said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping? Whom
are you looking for?” Supposing Him to be the gardener, she said to Him, “Sir,
if you have carried Him away, tell me where you have laid Him, and I will take
Him away.” Jesus said to her, “Mary!” She turned and said to Him in Hebrew,
“Rabbouni!” (which means Teacher). Jesus said to her, “Do not hold on to Me,
because I have not yet ascended to the Father. But go to my brothers and say
to them, ‘I am ascending to My Father and your Father, to My God and your
God.’” Mary Magdalene went and announced to the disciples, “I have seen the
Lord;” and she told them that He had said these things to her.
