Pastor Janice Sutter brings the message this morning on John 20:1-18, which retells how Mary found the empty tomb and saw Jesus alive.

The season of Easter is a season of celebration. Christ is risen! Death is conquered! We celebrate the Living Story and the living Christ among us! We enter the 50 days of celebration anchored by Easter Sunday on one end and Pentecost on the other. Our worship is grounded in praise, as we tell the stories of Christ's appearances and ponder the mystery of his dying and rising.
