Easter Sunday

Easter Sunday celebrates the glorious Resurrection of Jesus Christ, the central event of the Christian faith. On the morning of the third day after His crucifixion, women disciples went to the tomb and found it empty. As Scripture recounts, “He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay” (Matthew 28:6). Angels announced the good news, and the disciples were filled with joy and awe. The Resurrection confirmed Jesus as the Son of God, triumphant over sin and death, and fulfilled God’s promise of salvation for all humanity.

The Resurrection transformed sorrow into hope, despair into joy, and fear into courage. Jesus appeared to His disciples, saying, “Peace be with you” (John 20:19), offering them forgiveness and commissioning them to share His message of love and eternal life. Easter Sunday is a day of victory, celebrating that life and light have overcome darkness and death. It invites all believers to live in the joy of the Resurrection, embracing a life renewed in Christ’s love.
