HAPPY EASTER




We hope you have a wonderful day with your families. We will be thinking about all of you. We also hope you have lots of candy, colored eggs and all that good stuff!

But most of all we hope you remember the real reason we celebrate Easter! Don't forget to take time and thank our Savior for what he did for us. Don't mean to get preachy, but he is the reason why we can be with those we love who have passed on when we die.

HE IS RISEN

Matthew 27:57-60 Matthew 28:1-2 Matthew 28:5-6

It was hard for me to find a picture of Christ at the Tomb. Most images in google were of Easter Bunnies, Easter Eggs and Easter Candy, but then there were a few Crosses and Death Scenes. His sacrifice in the Garden of Gethsemane and on the Cross are a very important part of his Divine Calling, but I am glad that we have been taught to dwell on his Resurrection this is why I chose a picture of him at the Tomb, rather than at the Cross.

I love hearing your testimony of christ. It is a wonderful time of year to remind our selves this is realy not our home and to stick to the task of enduring and living right so we can return home to our father in heaven and loved ones that have gone on before. Christ has made this possible for all.

We enjoyed our time with the family yesterday and although I give you a hard time I do appreciate your testimony and I really do have one of my own. I love you!
