For Christians, every First Day of the Week—Sunday is a Festival of the Resurrection. Easter Sunday this weekend marks the culmination of God’s Word about Jesus that we began to hear already last November. Our triumphant refrain will be Christ is Risen! He is Risen Indeed!

God strengthens us Sunday by Sunday with His Word and the Means of Grace, including the Preaching of His Word, Holy Communion, and the Fellowship of Brothers and Sisters in Christ.

This Easter Sunday our Epistle Lesson states the facts plainly: “If in Christ we have hope in this life only, we are of all people most to be pitied. But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep” (1 Corinthians 15:19-10). This means that our final enemy, Death, has been decisively defeated (v. 26).

God’s messengers in the Holy Gospel for Easter advise the women at the empty tomb not “to seek the Living among the dead” (Luke 24:5). And we, at Easter Worship, are advised not to look for Life in the midst of this world’s deadly sinning.

Fellowship will follow the Easter Service. The Hospitality Committee has arranged a Continental Breakfast to enhance our time together. 

This Sunday we’ll continue to set aside our ongoing study of what God's Word says about Satan. Instead, we’ll use our time together to discuss ways in which we can help unchurched family, friends, and neighbors turn to the Good News that Death has been decisively defeated. We will not set up any Bible Study Zoom during this Easter Fellowship time.

Many of us enjoyed visiting with Pr Robert Stevens and his wife Laurie when they visited. Mt Calvary Congregation officially Called Pr Stevens to be our next full time Pastor. We pray for him and his wife, for his current Congregation, and for our Congregation that God’s Will be done. Because of Pr Stevens’ commitment to focusing his current Congregation on Lent, Holy Week, and Easter Day, we have not expected to hear any decision from him until after Easter Sunday.

May God make it possible for you to join us in person or on Zoom at 9am this Easter Sunday for hearing God's Word and offering prayer, praise, and thanksgiving to God.

If you cannot be among God's people in person this Sunday, you can join us by Zoom.
