A journey of love, sacrifice and renewal

EASTER is a time of reflection and growth, a time to remember the sacrifice that Jesus made for us on the cross.

As Christians, we believe that God saves, protects, creates and ultimately died for our sins.

It is a time to be grateful for the new life that Jesus offers us, a chance to start fresh and leave behind our old ways.

The story of Easter begins with Jesus being crucified on the cross on Good Friday, a painful and cruel death that He endured for us. But His death was not the end, for on Easter Sunday, He rose again from the dead, conquering sin and death once and for all. This act of love and sacrifice is a reminder of the eternal well of grace and mercy that God offers us, a well of fresh spring water that rejuvenates and refreshes our souls.

As we reflect on Easter, we are called to give thanks for the new chance that Jesus has given us, to be grateful for the freedom from sin that His death and resurrection bring. We are called to carry the symbol of the cross with us, a symbol of hope and love that reminds us of the ultimate sacrifice that Jesus made for us.

It is a time to prepare ourselves for the walk with God, to surrender our spirits to Him and to trust that He will guide us through our fears and struggles. We must be ready to embrace the new life that Jesus offers us, to leave behind our old selves and become renewed in His love.
