WELCOME
EASTER SUNDAY
The resurrection of Jesus Christ on Easter Sunday is the cornerstone of the Christian faith, signifying the fulfillment of God’s plan for salvation and offering believers the promise of eternal life. It is a day of great hope and joy, as Christians celebrate the victory of light over darkness, life over death and peace with God. Easter Sunday reminds us of the power of faith and its message of hope every day we live. Easter is a time for Christians to reflect on the significance of Jesus’ sacrifice and the promise of eternal God life. Paul says that if Christ is not raised from the dead, then our preaching and hope are in vain. Think, if there was no resurrection of Jesus Christ, there would be no salvation, no church, no hope of forgiveness and no home in heaven. The resurrection is the foundation of everything we believe as Christians. The resurrection of Jesus Christ affirms Him as the prophesied Messiah of Israel that would fulfill the promise of Gen. 3:15 and take all believers to a new heaven and a new earth. Church, let us as believers in the resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, worship and praise Him with a heart full and running over for what He has given us.
Praise the Lord for Christ’s resurrection!
"And I will put enmity between you and the woman and between your seed and her Seed; He shall bruise your head, and you shall bruise His heel. " Genesis 3:15
