“He has risen!”  Imagine the utter amazement and pure astonishment of hearing those words after witnessing the brutal crucifixion and death of the Son of God. Christ’s followers  had just heard words like “crucify him!” by the opposing crowd and cries from the cross like “my God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”, “I thirst.”, and “It is finished!”; but everything changed when they heard He was now ALIVE. Defeat might have seemed like a reality for just a few short days, but in the early morning light of that third day, the heavy stone was rolled away and the tomb, in which a lifeless body was laid, was now empty.  Death no longer had any dominion, the power of sin destroyed, and the enemy had been conquered.

Holy Week gives us an opportunity to gather in remembrance of what He’s done and celebrate the victory that He has won! We hope you’ll join us for Good Friday and Easter Services – AND don’t keep this GOOD NEWS to yourself! Extend the invitation to invite family, friends, neighbors and anyone else to join you!
