The Holy Post - Apr. 09
Dear Friends,
Christ is risen! Christ is risen indeed! That ancient affirmation and response has echoed through the ages at Easter. As we celebrate this most important Christian holy day, I am amazed at the power of Christ’s resurrection still at work in the church today.
We began the ReFocus process with some fear and trepidation wondering if it would make any difference. The ReFocus Team worked hard. It was much more work than we anticipated. However, the congregation responded and we are launching four new ministries in the community. The power of Christ’s resurrection is still at work among us!
For me personally, there is great encouragement in knowing that the power of Christ’s resurrection is at work in me so that I can be a true disciple of Christ. The way things are, is not the way things have to stay for me personally or for any Christian. There is a power greater than ours, the power that raised Christ from the dead, which helps each of us become the people God intends us to be—resurrection people. Because of Easter, there is hope. Christ is risen! Christ is risen indeed!
Happy Easter!
Sam
