Happy Easter

Happy Easter~ He is Risen!

"Our Lord has written the promise of the resurrection,
not in books alone, but in every leaf in springtime." ~ Martin Luther 




As we celebrate Easter, let us remember, there is much more to the celebration than colourful eggs, bunnies, and chocolate. As nice as those things are!




It is because of His sacrifice that we celebrate this time of year.

As we gather around our tables to share an Easter bounty, may we remember the ultimate sacrifice our Lord Jesus made for us....

"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life." ~ John 3:16

"....and He Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness; for by His wounds, you were healed." ~ 1 Peter 2:24


Praise the Lord.... Because He lives!
Have a Blessed Easter everyone!
