We Believe

He lives today and so will we, forever, those of us who indeed believe. 

Easter . . . “the most important and oldest festival of the Christian Church, celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ and held (in the Western Church) between March 21 and April 25, on the first Sunday after the first full moon following the northern spring equinox.”

The above is the definition of Easter found in the New Oxford American Dictionary accessed in my laptop.

Long ago, when the minister preaching to us, his congregation, noted we were Easter people I held an understanding attitude, but I was puzzled.

Yet, it was simple.  Because we believe Jesus died on the cross, was buried and arose, because of Jesus’ resurrection, we have faith;  we believe in Him and His teachings, we have hope; we believe in new life after death on this earth.  We are Easter People.


May you and yours enjoy another glorious Easter.
