A very Happy Easter to everyone, whether you celebrate Easter or not, for Christians the world over it is perhaps the most sacred and special day in our year. A day we remember when the risen Lord conquered death and rose again.
It is a strange Easter day when people cannot get together and celebrate but are finding new ways of joining together, I joined in with people from my church in an online service this morning - together whilst apart.
For Christians the message of hope is perhaps the most important from this day; when we struggle to understand what is happening and why, we look to God for strength, comfort and support. The prayers of everyone today are surely with all those on the front line battling this disease and for those who worry or mourn for a loved one. Wherever you are and whatever your circumstances, I pray that the God of Peace and Hope will be with you this day and always.
