Father Csaba’s reflection on the gospel  Wednesday  27 December 2017 . -The Feast of Saint John Apostle and evangelist 

"he saw and believed.” John 20,8 Today people live in comfort , they get high salaries and yet they only carry out their tasks reluctantly ! Saint John and the other apostles without pay, amidst persecution over many-many years , many till their martyrdom carried out their work that effected the whole world ! The experiences of John and his companions not only transformed their own lives but the whole world’s ! Anyone can say anything , about the achievement of people of humble origin, but no one was able to do the same either before the birth of Jesus nor after Jesus’ birth.! This is why I also regard Saint John and his companions as trustworthy witnesses ! I accept with faith all that they saw and believed and I also bow my head with living faith !

With love

So Mary Magdalene ran and went to Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one whom Jesus loved, and said to them, "They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have laid him." Then Peter and the other disciple set out and went toward the tomb. The two were running together, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first. He bent down to look in and saw the linen wrappings lying there, but he did not go in. Then Simon Peter came, following him, and went into the tomb. He saw the linen wrappings lying there, and the cloth that had been on Jesus' head, not lying with the linen wrappings but rolled up in a place by itself. Then the other disciple, who reached the tomb first, also went in, and he saw and believed.
