He is Risen Indeed, Alleluia!

The Main Morning Service Today – a Family Communion – saw St Pauls packed. Our usual congregation was swelled by a number of children and grandchildren, and it was lovely to see them. We were all encouraged to join in the Easter acclamation – the basis of our faith: “Christ is risen! – He is Risen Indeed, Alleluia! which was used repeatedly during the service.

The children took part in finding “eggs” around the church (paper egg shapes with a letter on them). Together, they spelt “Risen” with each individual letter having a particular association with Christ’s work on the cross and saving us from sin.

May we consider the work of God at Easter not just now, but throughout the year.
