Hallelujah—Christ Arose!
What a glorious (though somewhat cold, at 43 degrees) day to celebrate the Resurrection of Jesus! In the pastor’s sermon this morning, he read a list he’d made of names/descriptions of Jesus starting with each list of the alphabet. I couldn’t write them all down, but loved the idea. Some of these will be what I remember from his list, some are from me.
