Jesus Gives Us the Holy Spirit

Jesus: Peace be with you.
Storyteller 2: Jesus showed his friends the nail marks in his hands and the spear mark in his side.
Jesus: Peace be with you. My Father sent me to you. Now I am sending you to all people.
Storyteller 1: Jesus breathed on his followers.
Jesus: Receive the Holy Spirit. If you forgive people’s sins, they
are forgiven. If you do not forgive people’s sins, they are not forgiven.
