Easter joy

"the Good News is that the bad news is only temporary..."

Bishop Julius C. Trimble said these words of assurance at a clergy gathering in January, 2010.  Little did he know it was just what I needed to hear in that moment.

Mary Magdalene learned this was true as well when she approached Jesus' tomb on the third day; found it empty, and unsure what it all meant ran to tell the disciples.  As she tried to wrap her mind around things she ran into Jesus of all people!  And as she fell at Jesus' feet her weeping turned to shouts of joy.

May you experience the hope, peace, joy and love of the Easter Season!

Christ is risen!
Alleluia!
Christ is risen, indeed!

in Christ, together,
deborah
