Easter Sunday

Easter Sunday is a Christian holiday celebrating Jesus Christ’s resurrection from the dead. For many, it is a time for reflection, gratitude, and hope. It is considered the Church’s most important and oldest festival.

As Anglicans, we consider Easter Sunday the most important and oldest festival of the Church because it honors the resurrection of our Lord, Jesus Christ from the dead, a central event in Christian theology. Easter fulfills prophecies in the Old Testament and is the foundation of the Anglican faith. Anglicans believe that through Jesus’ resurrection, we have the hope of eternal life and forgiveness of sins. For that reason, Easter Sunday holds immense significance in our faith, which we celebrate with great joy and reverence.

Easter Sunday is also a time of joy and celebration for Anglicans worldwide. It is a day when countless individuals come together to attend church services, join in Easter egg hunts, and unite with loved ones to share meals and exchange gifts. We also link the holiday with other traditions, such as the Easter Bunny, Easter eggs, and special foods like hot cross buns.

The Easter Bunny symbolizes fertility, new life, and the arrival of spring. It is a beloved character in Easter traditions, often depicted as a playful rabbit delivering colorful eggs to children. This joyful symbol has its roots in ancient festivals celebrating the renewal of life in the springtime. 

Easter eggs symbolize new life and the resurrection of Jesus Christ, signifying hope and renewal. 

Hot cross buns are traditionally eaten on Good Friday to mark the end of Lent. 

These traditions have become deeply rooted in celebrating Easter, and we invite you to join us in celebrating this event.

God Bless.

Psalm 93

King James Version

93 The Lord reigneth, he is clothed with majesty; the Lord is clothed with strength, wherewith he hath girded himself: the world also is stablished, that it cannot be moved.

2 Thy throne is established of old: thou art from everlasting.

3 The floods have lifted up, O Lord, the floods have lifted up their voice; the floods lift up their waves.

4 The Lord on high is mightier than the noise of many waters, yea, than the mighty waves of the sea.

5 Thy testimonies are very sure: holiness becometh thine house, O Lord, for ever.
