Jesus appears to Mary

Easter Sunday

On Easter Sunday, we rejoice at the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. In the wee hours of the morning, we witness Mary Magdalene and the other Mary encounter Jesus outside the empty tomb. As the day continues, we continue to celebrate the joy of the Resurrection, which stands in contrast to the darkness of Good Friday. Easter Sunday is the beginning of Eastertide, a fifty-day period during which we continue to hear the stories of Jesus’ resurrection.
