Christ is risen! Alleluia! In these 5-weeks Easter series, "The disciples told their stories~ Encounter, experience, live and witness the Resurrection", let us encounter the Risen Jesus through the stories of His disciples and make the Resurrection a reality in our lives today.

// Passages
"After the Sabbath, and towards dawn on the first day of the week, Mary of Magdala and the other Mary went to visit the sepulchre. And suddenly there was a violent earthquake, for an angel of the Lord, descending from heaven, came and rolled away the stone and sat on it.

His face was like lightning, his robe white as snow. The guards were so shaken by fear of him that they were like dead men. But the angel spoke; and he said to the women, 'There is no need for you to be afraid. I know you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified.  He is not here, for he has risen, as he said he would. Come and see the place where he lay, then go quickly and tell his disciples, "He has risen from the dead and now he is going ahead of you to Galilee; that is where you will see him." Look! I have told you.’

Filled with fear and great joy the women came quickly away from the tomb and ran to tell his disciples. And suddenly, coming to meet them, was Jesus. 'Greetings,' he said. And the women came up to him and, clasping his feet, they did him homage. Then Jesus  said to them, 'Do not be afraid; go and tell my brothers that they must leave for Galilee; there they will see me. " Matthew 28:1-10
