3 Chaplain s Report He is not here, for he has been raised just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay Matthew (28:6). In reading and proclaiming the scripture, I try to imagine myself on the scene. Who am I? Where am I? How does this event effect my life? What do you suppose it was like for the disciples 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, were the first apostles 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)? Again, imagine yourself standing there with John and the others. 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; a sad ending for a great teacher and miracle worker. When John saw the empty tomb I think 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 believed (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. 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 is the word announced by the prophets, and Jesus is the word now preached throughout the Christian world and church for all ages to come. 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, love him and proclaim with total conviction in the power of his resurrection. The greatest joy we can have is to encounter the living Christ, encounter Him in the Bread and Wine, in the Liturgy we share, and in our brothers and sisters who we serve with open and caring hearts. Let us accept the good news of Jesus' death and resurrection. Let us put aside skeptical doubt and disbelief. Let us live a life that is Christ centered and believe and proclaim with trusting faith and joyful wonderment HE IS RISEN. A Blessed and Joyful Easter Season to all. Deacon Joseph Yannotta
