Greetings in Christ!
Christ is Risen! He is Risen, Indeed!! The stone has been rolled away, Jesus is not in the tomb, for he is risen! Death is defeated, sins are forgiven, and all things are made new! What a grand and glorious celebration of Easter we enjoyed, and what a grand and glorious Season of Easter is ours to embrace. For the next fifty days, our focus will be on Jesus’ time on earth following the Resurrection, and on our incorporation of his teachings into our daily lives.
Christ is Risen! He is Risen, Indeed!! As spring begins to work its magic in our gardens and yards, and as the forests begin to heal from the devastation of the ice storms, Christ can work his magic in our lives, transforming us from sinners to forgivers, from inwardly-focused to outwardly-focused, from fearfulness to boldness, from selfish to generous. The process of change is rarely instantaneous, which is why we are blessed with fifty days to fully become who we are called to be; so let us all take up our crosses and follow Jesus into the bright future he has in store for us, remembering always that his yoke is easy, and his burden is light. We look forward to the journey with you!
Blessings, Karen and Greg

And calling the crowd to him with his disciples, he said to them, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. Mark 8:34
