Father Anthony reflects on John 20:19–23 — the Risen Jesus entering the locked room of fearful hearts, greeting His disciples with “Peace be with you,” and breathing the Holy Spirit upon them, revealing that His resurrection is not only victory over death but a gift of mercy that restores, sends, and empowers, commissioning the Church to forgive sins and inviting us to receive His peace, let go of shame, and become instruments of reconciliation in a wounded world.
