On Easter Sunday, the women go to the tomb to prepare Jesus' body.  He isn't there.  The angels tell them.  But still, they are looking for His body, they're perplexed.  The disciples hear from the women.  They go to the tomb, it's empty.  They're confused, they don't understand, they go back home.  Mary Magdalene sees Jesus who she thinks is the gardener, asking if He knows where Jesus' body is.  Eventually they will all see, they will all believe, but that first Easter Sunday did not begin with shouts of "Alleluia! Christ is Risen!"

As we celebrate the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on the disciples who then spoke in other languages the Good News of Jesus, we remember that we are here because of the Holy Spirit at work in our own life and because of that first Pentecost.
