RESURRECTION LEGACY

Mary Magdalene showed up first, took one look at what to her was evidence of a looted tomb, and ran for help. John running ahead of Peter, looked in and saw that the body was indeed gone with only the wrappings remaining. When Peter got there, he went in and saw that the head wrappings were separate, as though someone had flung them off. They needed each other to get the complete picture. Community is the legacy of the Risen Christ. Celebrate it!
