Prayer of the Day: Almighty and eternal God, the strength of those who believe and the hope of those who doubt, may we, who have not seen, have faith in you and receive the fullness of Christ’s blessing, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen. 14 But Peter, standing with the eleven, raised his voice and addressed them, “Men of Judea and all who live in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and listen to what I say. 22 “You that are Israelites, listen to what I have to say: Jesus of Nazareth, a man attested to you by God with deeds of power, wonders, and signs that God did through him among you, as you yourselves know— 23 this man, handed over to you according to the definite plan and foreknowledge of God, you crucified and killed by the hands of those outside the law. 24 But God raised him up, having freed him from death, because it was impossible for him to be held in its power. 25 For David says concerning him, “I saw the Lord always before me, for he is at my right hand so that I will not be shaken; 26 therefore my heart was glad, and my tongue rejoiced; moreover my flesh will live in hope. 27 For you will not abandon my soul to Hades, or let your Holy One experience corruption. 28 You have made known to me the ways of life; you will make me full of gladness with your presence.’ 29 “Fellow Israelites, I may say to you confidently of our ancestor David that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is with us to this day. 30 Since he was a prophet, he knew that God had sworn with an oath to him that he would put one of his descendants on his throne. 31 Foreseeing this, David spoke of the resurrection of the Messiah, saying, “He was not abandoned to Hades, nor did his flesh experience corruption.’ 32 This Jesus God raised up, and of that all of us are witnesses. Psalm 16 1 Protect me, O God, for in you I take refuge. 2 I say to the Lord, “You are my Lord; I have no good apart from you.” 3 As for the holy ones in the land, they are the noble, in whom is all my delight. 4 Those who choose another god multiply their sorrows; their drink offerings of blood I will not pour out or take their names upon my lips. 5 The Lord is my chosen portion and my cup; you hold my lot. 6 The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; I have a goodly heritage. 7 I bless the Lord who gives me counsel; in the night also my heart instructs me. 8 I keep the Lord always before me; because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved. 9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my soul rejoices; my body also rests secure. 10 For you do not give me up to Sheol, or let your faithful one see the Pit. 11 You show me the path of life. In your presence there is fullness of joy; in your right hand are pleasures forevermore. 3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! By his great mercy he has given us a new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 and into an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you, 5 who are being protected by the power of God through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. 6 In this you rejoice, even if now for a little while you have had to suffer various trials, 7 so that the genuineness of your faith—being more precious than gold that, though perishable, is tested by fire—may be found to result in praise and glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed. 8 Although you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and rejoice with an indescribable and glorious joy, 9 for you are receiving the outcome of your faith, the salvation of your souls. 19 When it was evening on that day, the first day of the week, and the doors of the house where the disciples had met were locked for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you.” 20 After he said this, he showed them his hands and his side. Then the disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord. 21 Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you.” 22 When he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit. 23 If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained.” 24 But Thomas (who was called the Twin), one of the twelve, was not with them when Jesus came. 25 So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord.” But he said to them, “Unless I see the mark of the nails in his hands, and put my finger in the mark of the nails and my hand in his side, I will not believe.” 26 A week later his disciples were again in the house, and Thomas was with them. Although the doors were shut, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you.” 27 Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here and see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it in my side. Do not doubt but believe.” 28 Thomas answered him, “My Lord and my God!” 29 Jesus said to him, “Have you believed because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have come to believe.” 30 Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book. 31 But these are written so that you may come to believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that through believing you may have life in his name. Sermon by Bishop Kristen Kuempel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-IP28ZY5w6A&feature=youtu.be Prayers of Intercession (from Sundays and Seasons) Uplifted by the promised hope of healing and resurrection, we join the people of God in all times and places in praying for the church, the world, and all who are in need. Open the doors we close, O God, when we fear those who worship you in different ways. Guide us to unity and harmony so that we may come to respect and cherish our commonalities. Lord, in your mercy, hear our prayer. Open the paths we ignore, O God, when we prioritize financial gain and convenience over listening to the groaning of the earth. Inspire all to care for the world you have made so that living things might thrive. Lord, in your mercy, hear our prayer. Open the rooms we lock, O God, to those who live without a homeland or place of safety. We pray that generous nations offer refuge and peace for all. Lord, in your mercy, hear our prayer. Open the hearts we close, O God, to the cries of those in pain. We pray for those isolated physically or emotionally through incarceration, addiction, mental illness, chronic suffering, grief, and all in need. Lord, in your mercy, hear our prayer. Open the ways of love, O God, in the pursuit of peace throughout the world, and bless the efforts of missionaries, healthcare professionals, activists for women and children, and relief workers, especially those who find themselves in harm’s way. (Here other worldwide ministries may be named.) Lord, in your mercy, hear our prayer. Open the way to eternal life, O God, as we remember those who have died in faith (especially Olavus Petri and Laurentius Petri, renewers of the church). Free us from the fear of death, that we embrace the peace you have promised. Lord, in your mercy, hear our prayer. With bold confidence in your love, almighty God, we place all for whom we pray into your eternal care; through Christ our Lord. Amen.

यूहन्ना अध्याय 20 हप्ताको पहिलो दिन बिहानै मरियम मग्दलिनी येशूको चिहानमा गई। तिनले देखिन कि त्यो ठूलो चट्टान जो चिहानको द्वारमा राखिएको थियो त्यो ढुंगा हाटाइएको थियो। 2 यसैले मरियम शिमोन पत्रुस र अन्य चेलाहरूकहाँ गई (जसलाई येशूले धेरै माया गर्नुहुन्थ्यो।) मरियमले तिनीहरूलाई भनिन, “तिनीहरूले प्रभुको देहलाई चिहानबाट लगेछन्। हामी जान्दैनौ तिनीहरूले उहाँलाई कहाँ राखेका छन्।” 3 यसकारण पत्रुस र अर्को चेला चिहानमा जानलागे। 4 तिनीहरू दुवै दुगरे, तर अर्को चेला पत्रुस भन्दा छिटो दगुरे। यसैले अर्को चेला चिहानमा पहिले पुगे। 5 चेलाले निहुरिएर तलतिर हेरे। तिनीहरूले सूती लुगाको टुक्राहरू मात्र त्यहाँ रहेको देखे, तिनीहरू भित्र झरेनन्। 6 त्यसपछि शिमोन पत्रुस आइपुग्यो। पुत्रस चिहान भित्र गयो। उसले सूती लुगाको टुक्रा मात्र त्यहाँ रहेको देख्यो। 7 उसले येशूको टाउँको बाँधिएको लुगा पनि देख्यो। त्यो लुगा पट्याएर सूतीको कपडाका टुक्रादेखि अलग्गा राखिएको थियो। 8 त्यसपछि अर्को चेला पनि पस्यो। यो मानिस अघि चिहानमा पहिलो पुग्ने चेला थियो। तिनले भित्र पुगेर जे देखे त्यो विश्वास गरे। 9 ती चेलाहरूले अझ बुझेका थिएनन कि धर्मशास्त्रले भनेकोछ कि येशू मृत्युबाट जागी उठ्नै पर्छ। 10 त्यसपछि चेलाहरू आफ्ना घर र्फक। 11 तर मरियम चिहानकै बाहिर उभिएर रोइरही। जब रोई रहेकी थिइन् चिनहान भित्र हेर्नु तिनी निहुरिन्। 12 मरियमले सेतो वस्त्रमा दुई स्वर्गदूतहरू देखी । तिनीहरू जहाँ येशूको टाउँकोपट्टी र अर्को स्वर्गदूत येशूको खुट्टापट्टी बसिरहेका थिए। 13 स्वर्गदूतहरूले मरियमलाई सोधे, “हे! नारी! किन रोईरहेकी छौ?”मरियमले जवाफ दिइन, “कसैले मेरा प्रभुको शरीर लगेर गएछ। तिनीहरूले कहाँ राखेका छन् मलाई थाहा छैन।” 14 मरियमले यति भनिसकेर जब र्फकिन उनले उहाँलाई त्यहाँ उभिरहनु भएको देखिन्। तर तिनले येशू भनेर चिनिनन्। 15 येशूले उनलाई सोध्नुभयो, “नारी, तिमी किन रोइरहेछौ? तिमी कसलाई खोजिरहेछौ?”मरियमले उहाँलाई त्यहाँ बगैंचाको माली सम्झी। तब मरियमले उहाँलाई सोधी, “के तिमीले येशूलाई लग्यौ, महोदय? भन उहाँलाई कहाँ राखेकाछौ। म त्यही जानेछु र उहाँलाई लानेछु।” 16 येशूले उसलाई भन्नुभयो, “हे मरियम।”मरियम येशू तर्फ फर्की र यहूदी भाषामा उसलाई भनी, “रब्बोनी।” (अर्थ “हे गुरुज्यु”) 17 येशूले उसलाई भन्नुभयो, “मलाई नछोऊ। म अझ् सम्म पिताकोमा गई सकेको छुइँन। तर मेरा दाज्यु-भाइहरू भएकोमा जाऊ, र तिनीहरूलाई यसो भनः ‘म मेरो पिता र तिमीहरूका पिताकहाँ फर्की जाँदैछु। म मेरो परमेश्वर र तिमीहरूको परमेश्वरकहाँ फर्की जाँदैछु।”‘ 18 मरियम मग्दलिनी चेलाहरूकहाँ गईन् अनि उनीहरूलाई भनिन, “मैले प्रभुलाई भेटें।” अनि येशूले जे भन्नु भएको थियो ती सब भनिदिइन्। 19 हप्ताको पहिलो दिन थियो। चेलाहरू त्यो बलुकी भेला भएका थिए। यहूदीहरूको डरले दैलोहरू बन्द थियो। तब येशू आउनु भयो र तिनीहरूका सामुने उभिनु भयो। येशूले भन्नुभयो “शान्ति तिमीहरूसँग रहोस्।” 20 येशूले यति भने पछि उहाँले आफ्ना हात र कोखा देखाउनु भयो। तब चेलाहरूले प्रभुलाई देखेर अति खुशी भए। 21 त्यसपछि येशूले फेरि भन्नुभयो, “शान्ति तिमीहरूसंग रहोस्। पिताले मलाई पठानु भयो। त्यस्तै प्रकारले अब म तिमीहरूलाई पठाइरहेछु।” 22 यती भनिसके पछि, येशूले चेलाहरूमाथि श्वास फुकेर भन्नुभयो, “पवित्र आत्मा लेओ।” 23 यदि तिमीहरूले मानिसहरूका पाप क्षमा गरिदियौ भने तिनीहरूका पापहरू क्षमा हुनेछ। यदि त्यसो गरेनौ भने तिनीहरूका पापहरू क्षमा हुनेछैन्।” 24 थोमा जसलाई दिदुमस भनिन्छ, येशू चेलाहरूकहाँ आउनु हुँदा थिएनन्। बाह्रजना मध्ये थोमा एकजना थिए। 25 अरू चेलाहरूले थोमालाई भने, “हामीले प्रभुलाई देख्यौं।” थोमाले भने, “म त्यति बेला सम्म विश्वास र्गदिन जबसम्म काँटीले छेडिएका दागहरू उहाँको हातमा देख्दिन अनि औलाँ त्यो काँटीको दागहरूमा राख्दिन र उहाँको कोखामा मेरो हात राख्दिन।” 26 एक हप्तापछि सबैजना चेलाहरू घरमा जम्मा भएका थिए। थोमा तिनीहरूसंग थिए। दैलो बन्द थियो, तर येशू आउनु भयो र तिनीहरू समक्ष उभिनु भयो। उहाँले भन्नुभयो, “शान्ति तिमीहरूमा रहोस्।” 27 त्यसपछि येशूले थोमालाई भन्नुभयो, “आऊ तिम्रो औंला यहाँ छिराऊ।” मेरा हातहरू हेर, तिम्रो हात मेरा कोखमा पसाऊ। शंका गर्न छोड अनि विश्वास गर्न थाल।” 28 थोमाले येशूलाई भने, “मेरा प्रभु र मेरा परमेश्वर!” 29 येशूले थोमालाई भन्नुभयो, “तिमीले मलाई विश्वास गर्यौ किनभने तिमीले मलाई देख्यौ। ती मानिसहरू धन्य हुन् जस-जसले मलाई नदेखिकनै विश्वास गरे।” 30 येशूले धेरै अरू चमत्कारहरू देखाउनु भएको उहाँका चेलाहरूले देखेका थिए। ती चमत्कारहरू यस पुस्तकमा लेखिएको छैन। 31 तर ती कुराहरू लेखिए ताकि तिमीहरूले विश्वास गर्न सक्छौ कि येशू नै ख्रीष्ट हुन्; जो परमेश्वरको पुत्र हुन् भनि जब तिमीहरू उहाँलाई विश्वास गर्छौ, तिमीहरूले उहाँको नाममा जीवन पाउन सक्छौं
