Mary Magdalene ran.
Simon Peter and the disciple whom Jesus loved ran,
but the other disciple ran faster than Peter and arrived at the tomb first.
He SAW and BELIEVED.

MAY WE RUN TO MEET THE WORD MADE FLESH DWELLING AMONG US.
REJOICE IN THE LORD, YOU JUST!
The Word of life was made visible;
we have seen it and testify to it and proclaim to you the eternal life
that was with the Father and was made visible to us—what we have seen and heard
we proclaim now to you.
We are writing this so that our joy may be complete.
(1 John 1:2-4)
O God, who through the blessed Apostle John
have unlocked for us the secrets of your Word,
grant, we pray,
that we may grasp with proper understanding
what he has so marvelously brought to our ears.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity
of the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever.
(Collect, Mass)
Please God, make our joy complete.
Saint John, pray for us.
