Welcome. This year, April brings us to the earliest and most important of Christian celebrations, what we call Resurrection Sunday, or Easter. This day (April 4 this year) celebrates the Resurrection of Christ from the dead after his crucifixion, as He had told His disciples would happen. It was the Resurrection that reassured the confused and frightened disciples and brought them back together, transforming them into a formidable force that took the Gospel to all corners of the world. It was the Resurrection that has changed the lives of followers on down to today! It is the Resurrection that gives us hope for the future.
The Resurrection changed everything! Why? Because the Resurrection proved that God is in control, that Jesus died for our sin, that God the Father accepted His substitutionary death in our place, and that we will spend eternity with Him.
Every single time in the Bible that someone encountered the Risen Christ, their life was never the same. Has the Resurrection changed you? Have you encountered the Risen Christ? Every child of God is offered the opportunity to meet and accept the Jesus Christ as his or her Lord and Savior.
This month, we’ll be focusing on the Resurrection of Jesus in our worship, in our Bible study, and even with our Easter egg hunt (to which all are invited – April 3 @ 2 pm). Come see the evidence of the Resurrection, learn what it means to you, and most importantly, come experience the Risen Lord and let Him change everything!
