Sermon May 10, 2026
Diego Garrido
Mary Magdalene
Mark 16:1-11
Hola. This is your ministerial intern, Diego. Join me first in this prayer:
God of love, I trust in you. May my words speak like the courage of the women who went to the tomb. May we, as a community, receive a message of belovedness for each of our endings. May we hear what we were meant to hear, and share after, what we hold as important. May I speak true to myself and to what my congregation holds at the bottom end of our hearts.
Amen.
1. We Don’t Like Sad Endings
The scripture said: “Do not be alarmed! You are looking for Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He has been raised. He isn’t here.” The translations define this figure as a young man clothed in white, not an angel, speaking to these women. And while he says, “Do not be alarmed,” the women continue to be alarmed.
