The resurrection is a celebration of new beginnings and the assurance that the best is truly
yet to come. The resurrection allows us to look up, to look forward, and to look ahead. .
The resurrection also means that life is not that bad because He is with us even here
and now. The resurrection is the assurance that the enemy of death has been defeated, that
our home in heaven is secure, and that our inheritance will never be taken from us so we
can take charge of Life .

THE EASTER FAITH

ON RESURRECTION MORNING
Mary ran to embrace the Risen Christ
But Christ restrained her
Do not hold me Mary,
Do not stay here at the Tomb,
Return to your friends
Return to your family
Return to the World
And tell the whole world
That Life is Good.
That Death is no more to be feared
Tell them Jesus Christ has been raised
As a victor from the dead
Tell them that God loves us
And because of that love
You can live now Mary I am with you
Tell them the struggle is worth it
So go on Mary tell the world
Go on Mary and tell the whole world.
