Happy Easter! He is risen! Hallelujah!

JOKE-OGRAPHY: 1. Mary Magdalene makes early trips to Jesus's tomb, maybe to anoint His Body with funeral oils, or maybe just to cry. In this cartoon, she refers to these trips as her "mourning routine." The word "mourning" (grieving) sounds like "morning" (the early part of the day). This pun implies that Mary's early daily ritual (her "morning routine") is one of sorrow (hence, "mourning routine"). 2. As Mary approaches Jesus's tomb in John's version of the story, she sees that it's open and hurries to the apostles to have them inspect it. In this cartoon, however, she's too exhausted to recognize what the open tomb implies (that the dead Jesus has somehow left His tomb). She continues into the tomb to wait for Him to return, and only after several minutes does the event literally dawn on her. This particular sunrise has seen the Son rise.

Hello brothers and sisters, as we get closer to the Easter Vigil, please pray for me. I'm going to be baptized, and the spiritual warfare has been so bad for me lately. I know - I need - to do this, and I really need prayers from my brothers and sisters in Christ's help. Thank you and God bless ♥️♥️♥️

Shoutout to everyone who aren't free to choose how they spend their Easter this year.

If you're forced to go to church, I hope you can find distractions to make the day fly by faster.

If the pastor won't shut up about how 'evil' you are, I hope you can shake off any guilt they are trying to put on your shoulders.

If you're forced to meet extended family, I hope you can shut out their comments and find time to slip away.

If your family makes you eat food you don't want to, I hope you don't feel sick afterwards.

If this Easter is especially tough for you, I hope you'll find comfort and know it won't be like this forever. I hope you know that you have support, even from strangers online, and you can get through this holiday fast and as painlessly as possible.

He is Risen!

Now is a good time to remember that Jesus went through all that horrific agony for everyone, including the people we think are annoying and stupid and mean

Dude yes, this is really important for Holy Week. Everyone, keep this in mind when we celebrate Easter in a few days with our loved ones who may or may not get on our nerves (and if you don't have anyone to celebrate with 🫂 I'm sorry and I love you, you'll be in my heart and my prayers that day)
