Easter Greetings from the Rector


Dear Friends,
Alleluia, Christ is Risen. He is risen indeed Alleluia!
Easter this year will be unlike any other than we have previously known.  Instead of being able to gather together and celebrate the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ we will all be in our homes. But this does not change the truth of Easter, we can still celebrate.  Jesus rose victorious, he conquered death, the grave could not contain him, nothing could hold Jesus back, he overcame evil, he defeated Satan and dealt once and for all with our sin. Easter truly is the greatest day in history.  The message of Easter gives us hope and confidence at this time, God can bring good out of anything.  From death comes resurrection.  ‘But God raised him from the dead, freeing him from the agony of death, because it was impossible for death to keep its hold on him.’ (Acts 2.24)
Thine be the glory, risen, conquering Son; endless is the victory thou o’er death has won.
Keep trusting in God and in his resurrection power.
A very Happy Easter to you all.
Steve
