RCL Reflection for Easter Sunday, Year A, April 12, 2020
This year’s Resurrection celebration is going to look a little different, but it doesn’t have to be any less meaningful. In fact, with Mark’s account we can also honor our own feelings of fear, confusion, and terror in these unsettling days. (Photo: Pedro-Ribeiro-Simões, Creative Commons)
Don’t Be Afraid; Be Sent!
RCL Reflection for the Resurrection of our Lord, Year A, April 16, 2017
Jesus’ words to his first evangelists–the women–and his first disciples are equally applicable to us today. We are not to hide our light under a basket. We are not to lock our faith away in fear. We are to go. We are to tell. We are to be Christ’s witnesses sent out of our sanctuaries and comfort zones into the hustle of the marketplace and bustle of the world. (Photo: TED, Creative Commons)
It’s About Time—Sort Of

Jesus’ simple instructions to the women provide clear direction for us today. There’s no time like this present festival day to go and tell the good news. (Photo: dmitry b., Creative Commons)
