How little it takes for us to move from belief to unbelief!
While Jesus was with them, full of life and promise and
love, his followers believed. Once Jesus was dead and
buried, their belief was shaken and they forgot about his
wordsanddeeds.Thisisthenight/daywhenthestonesof

through baptism into death. This isthenight/day when
we celebrate that we, too, live in newness of life. This is

Body of Christ. This is the night/day when the
announcement of salvation cannot be contained. And so
thisnight/dayhasitschallenge:the new Life isn’t simply
for our own gain, but so that God can renew creation.

this night/day is that while we celebrate Jesus’

REJOICE AND BE GLAD
DRAWN INTO THE STORY
“We are witnesses!” The scripture readings for Easter
Sunday concentrate on details reported by eyewitnesses.
Listen carefully and you will be drawn into the stories
yourself.PeterreportsthegoodworksJesusdid,hisdeath
onthecross,andhisresurrection.ThepassagefromJohn’s
Gospel has us running to the empty tomb with Peter and
John and peering inside to see the cloths used to cover
Jesus’ body. Psalm 118 sums up our response: “It is
