Christ is risen!
Christ is risen!
This is a photo I took yesterday during Easter service at my church (CMC). Service started on a somber note, with the cross enveloped in a black canvas sheet. At the end of the sermon, the pastor took off the black sheet to reveal the white base of the cross and the many bouquets of fresh flowers that you see in the photo. Deacons then walked in with the baloons, we sang the closing hymn, and we were each given a baloon as we left the sanctuary to go downstairs for our usual Sabbath potluck. The sermon focused on the celebration of our new life in Christ, which is in stark contrast with our “dead” state before salvation, so the imagery really drove home that point.
Curious to see last year’s Easter photo? There’s a story behind that as well.
