"But Mary stood weeping outside the tomb. As she wept, she bent over to look into the tomb; and she saw two angels in white, sitting where the body of Jesus had been lying, one at the head and the other at the feet. They said to her, 'Woman, why are you weeping?' She said to them, 'They have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid him.'" John 20:11-13 Tonight we celebrate the Great Vigil of Easter and the Resurrection of our Lord Join us for mass at 8... pm ET on Facebook and our YouTube channel.
