Lectionary Readings for worship services can be found at: https://www.lectionarypage.net/ "They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have laid him." John 20:2 Mary Magdalene is distraught to find the tomb empty and she wonders where Jesus is. The search for Jesus continues to our day. Amazingly, the first place to look for the victorious lord of life is among the poor, the needy, the immigrant, the homeless, the lost...among the unvictorious.
