Easter Sunday 2021

Easter Sunday 2021

First Jesus was born as an infant in the lowliest of settings, the King of kings in a borrowed bed of straw.

Then he taught and healed and walked the path of life with “friends” and “enemies,” going to parties, seeking solitude, praying, and feeding the hungry, bringing cool, fresh water to the thirsty.

In all he did, Jesus showed us Good News. Jesus taught us we belong to a loving God, that we are loved and that as lost as we may become, as terrible as life may treat us, there is nothing we can do about God’s love for us. God’s love is the fact Jesus showed us and taught us and commended us to live and learn as our own, as God’s own, men, women, and children of God.

If this was not enough, God had something else to show us through his beloved son Jesus.

Not even death can touch the life we live in God. Not even hate and ignorance, not the deepest sorrow can stop the love and life God gives us. When it looked like all was lost, Jesus rose to speak the truth that echoes in our lives still, today. Christ is risen! He is risen indeed!

This Sunday we celebrate this ancient glory, still so necessary and life-giving to us today.

The weather report says we will have a glorious, sunny Easter worship under at the pavilion. I can’t wait to see you and celebrate our risen Lord together again!

Holy Week Blessings to you –
