The episode opens with Frei Luiz reading the Gospel passage from Mark 16:9-15, which describes Jesus' resurrection appearances. Jesus first appears to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had expelled seven demons, but when she tells the disciples, they do not believe. He then appears to two others on the road, and finally to the eleven apostles at table, reproaching their lack of faith. Frei Luiz then greets listeners, noting that tomorrow is the Second Sunday of Easter, also called the Sunday of Mercy. He explains that every Sunday celebrates Jesus' resurrection, and participation in Mass is a communal celebration of this event. He states that just as Jesus sent the apostles, he now sends each baptized person on a mission as a missionary disciple. Announcing the Gospel, he clarifies, is not about quoting the Bible to unwilling listeners but about living a life of honesty, kindness, mercy, and solidarity that makes people notice a difference. This testimony identifies one as a follower of Jesus. Frei Luiz emphasizes that this task is demanding, especially in today's digital culture. Christians are called to be witnesses and protagonists of evangelization in the virtual environment, particularly on social networks. Amidst hatred and falsehood online, announcers of Jesus should bring kindness, love, and solidarity, throwing light into darkness. He references Jesus' historical ministry in Palestine, where he welcomed the poor, revealing God's love. This same Jesus, Frei Luiz asserts, is still alive in communities and continues his mission through believers to reveal God's love to the poor. The resurrection leads to singing about nothing separating us from Christ's love. A community that wants to witness resurrection must be a sign of life, fighting against forces of death to make the world a favorable place for life. The reflection ends with the belief that another world is possible.
