Easter

Watchword for the Week — So if you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Colossians 3:1

Sunday, April 12 — Acts 10:34-43; Psalm 118:1-2,14-24
Colossians 3:1-4; John 20:1-18

For darkness shall cover the earth, and thick darkness the peoples; but the Lord will arise upon you, and his glory will appear over you. Isaiah 60:2

Very early on the first day of the week, when the sun had risen, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Salome, went to the tomb. They had been saying to one another, “Who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance to the tomb?” When they looked up, they saw that the stone had already been rolled back. Mark 16:2-4

Oh, holy and risen Lord, the stone is rolled away and the light breaks upon us. May we bear the brightness and may we live as people rescued from the grave! Amen and amen!
