It’s Resurrection Sunday morning! Praise the Lord for His amazing love and gift of salvation!
His body was taken from the Cross and laid in a new tomb. The grief of those who had believed in Him and had followed Him was overwhelming. They didn’t know it yet, but the Master they loved and trusted wasn’t gone along with all their hopes. Sunday dawned, and Heaven did something that changed everything! It still changes everything today! If you’re looking for Jesus in a grave, He isn’t there! He has risen like He said! from the Easter Cantata “Arise My Soul, He Is Risen!
Our mission is to know God and make Him known to all people.
PRAISE! This morning, Tim and Emily Lewis will be baptized into our Fellowship of Believers.
