~About St Clement's~
Easter
Second Sunday of Easter
Brothers and sisters,
This Sunday the Church remembers Jesus’ post-resurrection appearance to his disciples. Cowering behind locked doors for fear of the mob, the disciples are filled with joy at the sight of their resurrected Lord.
However, Thomas – who was not with them at the time – refuses to believe the testimony of his comrades, and says he wants to feel the wounds in Jesus’ hands and side before he can believe.
The next week Jesus appears to the disciples again, and this time Thomas is present. But he does not need the proof he claimed. Meeting with Jesus – seeing him face-to-face – was more than enough! Thomas declares “My Lord and my God.”
Every blessing,
Fr Myles
Rector
