The Main Morning
Service Today – a Family Communion – saw St Pauls packed. Our usual
congregation was swelled by a number of children and grandchildren, and it was
lovely to see them. We were all encouraged to join in the Easter acclamation –
the basis of our faith: “Christ is risen! – He is Risen Indeed, Alleluia! which
was used repeatedly during the service.
The children
took part in finding “eggs” around the church (paper egg shapes with a letter
on them). Together, they spelt “Risen” with each individual letter having a
particular association with Christ’s work on the cross and saving us from sin.
May we consider
the work of God at Easter not just now, but throughout the year.
