BISHOP'S OFFICE
The tomb is empty! Jesus has conquered the grave! Christ is Risen! These facts remain the same and the promise is true yesterday, today, and all our tomorrows. The Easter story reveals how God is always working for good in our lives and in the world bringing light into the darkness, hope out of despair, and turning tragedy into triumph. There is nothing impossible for God! No matter how dark, tragic, or hopeless a circumstance or situation might be, the worst day or the worst thing is never the last thing.
As an Easter people we must decide every day not to shrink in fear and doubt. We must choose not to succumb to the suffering we experience and the evil and injustice that is pervasive throughout the world. We must have the faith to claim Christ’s resurrection power in our own lives, and choose to live victoriously, embodying and proclaiming God’s love, compassion, justice, peace and hope in the world. We do this by relying on God’s endless supply of grace and mercy and resting in the knowledge that nothing can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus. Every day we must proclaim that we are more than conquerors through Jesus Christ who is our hope and salvation and through whom all things are possible. Why? Because this is a fact and a promise!
Jesus told Mary Magdalene not to hold on to him but to go and share that she had seen him. We give witness to the power of the Resurrection by sharing testimonies of our faith in Christ. Who will you go and tell today that Christ is Risen?
