Alleluia, alleluia! This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad. Alleluia!
Blessings for a wonderful Easter. May this joyous liturgical season be a source of strength and hope for all. Let us celebrate the Risen Christ and strive to live as his witnesses in our daily lives.
God of Compassion
Be close to those who are ill, afraid or in isolation.
In their loneliness, be their consolation;
in their anxiety, be their hope;
in their darkness, be their light;
Your light is the only light we need as we travel through life's mystery.
Your word the only voice we hear
that still small voice that leads us to the place where we should be.
Your presence is the only company we need as we walk this narrow road.
Your fellowship the warmth we crave to help us on our way.
May the truth of Easter the joy of Easter and the blessings of Easter be with us this day and all days.
Amen
