Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom
come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day
our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those

deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power and
the glory forever. Amen

Gospel Lesson
1
When the sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of
James, and Salome bought spices, so that they might go and anoint him.
2
And very early on the first day of the week, when the sun had risen, they
went to the tomb. 3They had been saying to one another, ‘Who will roll away
the stone for us from the entrance to the tomb?’ 4When they looked up,
they saw that the stone, which was very large, had already been rolled back.
5
As they entered the tomb, they saw a young man, dressed in a white robe,
sitting on the right side; and they were alarmed. 6But he said to them, ‘Do
not be alarmed; you are looking for Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He
has been raised; he is not here. Look, there is the place they laid him. 7But
go, tell his disciples and Peter that he is going ahead of you to Galilee; there
you will see him, just as he told you.’ 8So they went out and fled from the
tomb, for terror and amazement had seized them; and they said nothing to
anyone, for they were afraid. Mark 16:1-8 (NRSV)
