He is risen!
rings from the intercom startling those of us gathered at table waiting for the Easter breakfast to start, and as one we turn to the front.
He Risen!
sounds
again and now with understanding as we respond
He is risen indeed Amen!
Our service begins with a cross of plain wood
and with joy that is overflowing we sing
and we sing
We sing and wait for the time that we can dress the cross with
symbols of our joy.
The children lead us in decorating the cross with new life and
joy!
Joyfully we follow the children and place our flowers on the
cross
each in
our own way as we each know and understand He
is risen through personal experience and collective celebration.
There is no wrong way, just your way of knowing God’s
unconditional love.
So with humility around the world today Christian’s celebrate
the gift of unconditional love as Christ passed through the despair and
separation from God for all of creation, rising anew and opening the gates so we
can pass through.
He is risen
and all will enter into eternity by passing through the gates
of God love
for his creation.
Amen!
