Jesus is dead. His body is gone! At times gratefulness can be hard. Penny explores Mary’s gratefulness at the empty tomb of Jesus. …It was a dark morning. Jesus was dead. Mary visits the tomb and discovers it empty. Jesus’ body is gone! Who took it? Mary runs back to tell the other disciples. They run to the tomb. Upon entering the tomb, indeed Jesus’ body is gone. The disciples return home. Mary stays at the tomb. Weeps. Two angels and a gardener appear – then Jesus makes himself known and says: “Mary!” Mary responds… come, listen, discover the rest of the story… gratefulness in uncertain times. Join DaRevsUSA, Penny and Bill, as they explore and reflect on the Gospel of John, Chapter 20, verses 1-18, share in the Lord’s prayer, and join in singing Immortal, Invisible, God only Wise.
