Today, we look at how Christianity in Korea began with seemingly small seeds planted by laypeople who discovered the faith through books and shared what they learned with others. The gospel reminds us that what looks small at the beginning can grow deeply when it finds a heart willing to receive it and live it.

Today, we look at Joanna, a woman who supported Jesus and his disciples even though she never became one of the famous voices of the early Christian movement. Her story reminds us that important work often depends on people who serve quietly, give generously, and make it possible for others to keep going.

Reflect, today, upon this powerful resurrection appearance. As you do, ponder whether or not you have allowed our Lord to speak to you in the same way that He did to these disciples, and whether or not you have truly internalized all that He has spoken to you and explained to you.
Reflect, today, upon these disciples and their need to reflect upon the Word of God so as to understand, believe and have their eyes opened. Know that you need this same grace.
Reflect, today, upon these words Jesus spoke to Mary: “Stop holding on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father.” But do so with the knowledge that, now, Jesus has indeed ascended to the Father.
Reflect, today, upon these chief priests and elders of the people. Try to ponder their hardness of heart and the sad situation they found themselves in as they attempted to cover up their error and sin. Resolve never to fall into this form of sin yourself.
