We Celebrate Easter

Jesus Christ is risen! He is risen indeed! 
But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they came to the tomb, taking the spices that they had prepared. 2 They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, 3 but when they went in, they did not find the body. 4 While they were perplexed about this, suddenly two men in dazzling clothes stood beside them. 5 The women were terrified and bowed their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here, but has risen. 6 Remember how he told you, while he was still in Galilee, 7 that the Son of Man must be handed over to sinners, and be crucified, and on the third day rise again.”
- Luke 24:1-7 NRSV
This morning we celebrate the joyous news that Jesus Christ is risen! The tomb is empty; death has lost its sting. As we gather with family, friends, and loved ones today in celebration, may we find hope in that good news!
