Nearly 2,000 years ago, a small group of women rose while it was still dark and made their way towards the tomb where the body of their beloved Lord, Jesus Christ, had been laid to rest.
Despite grief, fear, and unanswered questions, they encountered the empty tomb and learned for themselves the glorious truth of His Resurrection.
These few women became the worldโs first witnesses of the single greatest event in the history of the world.
We must all do the same.
We must encounter the empty tomb, experience the reality of what it means and, in turn, share that witness with others.
No, we were not with Mary on that blessed Easter morning. We did not see what she and the other women saw. But we can ask ourselves: what have we seen, felt, or experienced?
Shall we not, therefore, become witnesses of Jesus Christ? Shall we not share our love for Him with others?
My dear friends, on this holy Easter morning, I offer my witness:
He is risen.
