In this Mass Prep for the Second Sunday of Easter, we reflect on John 20:19-31 and the story of Doubting Thomas. Jesus meets His disciples in their fear, shows them His wounds, and invites Thomas to come close and believe. This Gospel reminds us that God is not afraid of our doubt. He meets us in it. The wounds of Christ are not erased in the Resurrection but revealed as places of encounter, mercy, and deeper faith.
