Happy Easter! Christ is Risen! ALLELUIA!
It is wonderful to have you with us on this most Holy
Day! Thank you for joining in our celebration of Jesus Christ’s triumph over
sin and over death. THANK YOU also for your patience and understanding as we
live and celebrate our way through all the dust and inconvenience of the major
renovation of the exterior of our church and the confusion of street closures
and construction all around us. This is a changing and dynamic neighborhood
that calls out for Christian witness. Easter happens regardless!
May this celebration of the victory of Christ’s love
fill you will Joy and Happiness! The Resurrection of Jesus has changed all
history and given it new and limitless meaning. It is because of the great
event that we celebrate today that you and I have a future, indeed an eternal
future. A future of LIFE and of LOVE!!! Alleluia!
In these dark times of bombings, crazy politics, mass
shootings, and the rise of authoritarian dictators around the world, we still
have a secure reason to be filled with HOPE. So don’t be sad, don’t worry, and
don’t brood over injuries and bad times and misfortunes. Today is a time to
REJOICE and be GLAD. Life has purpose and meaning. Life is filled with infinite
worth and possibility. Death has been conquered! Sin has been overcome! All
other problems are temporary. We have great reason to rejoice. And your
presence today adds to the JOY!
Happy Easter! Christ is Risen! ALLELUIA!
