Full Circle


Jesus’ ministry started just after John the Baptist was arrested. Matthew 17 says that Jesus began to preach, saying “Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.”

Fast forward through preaching, teaching, miracles, mocking, and betrayal, He is also arrested. Tried, convicted, and put to death.

But this is Easter Sunday, and we can now celebrate what both Marys experienced firsthand. The sacrifice is complete. The tomb is empty.  The curtain in the temple is open. Jesus is alive. The crux of our Christian Faith. And we can actually enjoy Heaven here on earth while we are here. Easter is a High Holy Day that is open to all. We worship on Sundays because of Easter. The Easter Lily represents Christ’s resurrection. Blessings and Peace of Christ to all.

He Is Risen.
