Christ is Risen:
The world below lies desolate
Christ is Risen: The spirits of evil are
fallen
Christ is Risen: The
angels of God are rejoicing
Christ is Risen: The tombs of the dead
are
empty
Christ is Risen indeed from the dead,
the first of the
sleepers,
Glory and power are his forever and ever
-
St. Hippolytus (AD 190-236)
Updates:
To all the Western Christians
out there: Christ is Risen! Happy Easter! Our Orthodox brothers and
sisters
will be celebrating Easter (Pascha) on April 27th, as the Western and
Eastern Christian Churches follow a different calendar. As Inclusive
Orthodoxy is ecumenical, shall we honor Easter twice this year?
Not only was March 23rd Easter
Sunday, but it was
also me and my boyfriend Chris’ one-year anniversary of having been
together!
In last month’s newsletter I cited the newly
released DVD For The Bible Tells Me So and provided a link where
one
could pre-order a copy from Amazon. Just wanted to let you all know that
copies are now available through Amazon http://astore.amazon.com/truthsetsfree-20/detail/B000YHQNCI/105-4345433-7886067

Quote for
Reflection:
“For Christ died for sins once for
all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to
death in the body but made alive by the Spirit, through whom also he went
and preached to the spirits in prisonwho disobeyed long ago when God
waited
patiently in the days of Noah while the ark was being
built….” - 1 Peter 3:18-20
Love in
Christ,
