We just learned about when Jesus appeared to Peter.
After Jesus had been crucified, his disciples were scared of the people who had put him on the cross.
They thought maybe people were going to come arrest them next, so they were in a house with all the doors locked.
Suddenly Jesus appeared to them and said "Peace be with you!".
He showed them his pierced hands and side.
The disciples were very happy to see him, and very surprised because all of the doors were locked and Jesus just appeared.
He told people "Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.".
This meant he was sending his disciples out into the world to spread his message.
Then he breathed on them and said "Receive the Holy Spirit. If you forgive anyone’s sins, their sins are forgiven; if you do not forgive them, they are not forgiven.".
This meant he was trusting them to go out and be leaders in churches to tell people about forgiveness.
