TODAY’S GOSPEL MEDITATION...by Don Schwager

What was it like for the disciple who had stood at the cross of Jesus and then laid him in a tomb on Good Friday, to come back three days later and discover that the sealed tomb was now empty? John, along with Peter, was the first apostle to reach the tomb of Jesus on Easter Sunday morning. Like Mary Magdalene and the other disciples, John was not ready to see an empty tomb and to hear the angel's message, Why do you seek the living among the dead (Luke 24:5)? What did John see in the tomb that led him to believe in the resurrection of Jesus? It was certainly not a dead body. The dead body of Jesus would have disproven the resurrection and made his death a tragic conclusion to a glorious career as a great teacher and miracle worker. When John saw the empty tomb he must have recalled Jesus' prophecy that he would rise again after three days. Through the gift of faith John realized that no tomb on earth could contain the Lord and giver of life. John saw and be-lieved (John 20:8). John had to first deal with the empty tomb before he could meet the risen Lord later that evening along with the other apostles who had locked themselves in the upper room out of fear of the Jewish authorities (John 20:19-23). John testified as an eye-witness to the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ: What we have seen, heard, and touched we proclaim as the eternal word of life which existed from the beginning (1 John 1:1-4). John bears witness to what has existed from all eternity. This "word of life" is Jesus the word incarnate, but also Jesus as the word announced by the prophets and Jesus the word now preached throughout the Christian church for all ages to come. One thing is certain, if Jesus had not risen from the dead and appeared to his disciples, we would never have heard of him. Nothing else could have changed sad and despairing men and women into people radiant with joy and courage. The reality of the resurrection is the central fact of the Christian faith. Through the gift of the Holy Spirit, the Lord gives us "eyes of faith" to know him and the power of his resurrec-tion. The greatest joy we can have is to encounter the living Christ and to know him personally as our Lord and Savior. Do you accept the good news of Jesus' death and resurrection with skeptical doubt and disbelief or with trusting faith and joyful wonderment?

VETERAN’S CORNER

NEED ASSISTANCE FROM ST. PHILIP’S VETERANS

You may recall that the past few years we have displayed military uniforms in the front of the church during the Memorial Day and Veterans Day weekends. In the past, the uniforms were loaned to us from parishioners Joy and Don Smith or we rented them.

Instead of borrowing or renting, we would like to have our own permanent uniforms to display twice each year. We are in need of an Army, Marine, Navy, Air Force, and Coast Guard dress uniform. Do you have a military dress uniform you would like to donate to St. Philips? Don’t let your cherished uniform be discarded or given away anonymously as a clothing donation. Instead, make a last-ing tribute of your loyal service to our Country by donating it to St. Philips.

If you can help, please contact St. Philip’s Veterans Committee Chairman Chuck Monkelbaan at 656-0526. Thank you.

Good Sunday Morning! Today we celebrate the crowning mystery of our faith. It helps us remember that belief in the Resurrection comes only by stages. We can lose heart when we think that our children just don’t get it. Mary Magdalene, Peter, and John, who are intimate friends of Jesus, didn’t get it right away either. Our Easter faith means that we believe that there is hope for all. Reflect on the full meaning of what we are commemorating today; pray that our children will come to know that truth as well. Alleluia!! In Christ’s Peace, Sharon Pikul
