This Easter, remember hope.

Once again, we gather to remember that Christ the Lord is risen! He is risen, indeed! And even though we weren’t there at the empty tomb on that first Easter morning, we’ve inherited the sacred memory of that moment; it has been passed on to us by generations of the faithful who have gone before us.

We often think of hope as future-oriented; hope as some sort of carrot that’s set before us to inspire us toward a better future. And sometimes this can be a problematic way to conceive of hope. Because when we don’t feel as though we’re moving toward a better future, we can so easily become hopeless – and striving for hope amid overwhelming hopelessness can be exhausting.

But the Easter story has a profound message for us in this moment. Join us on the journey as we celebrate Easter on Sunday, April 20 at 10 a.m. ASL interpretation is provided. You are welcome here! 🌈 🏳️‍⚧️
