Brothers and sisters, Jesus Christ, our Savior, is alive!
The grave could not hold him. Christ is alive!
There is joy this morning!
Go into the world with joy.
Tell the world Christ lives.
Tell the world of God’s love.
Go, my sisters and brothers, go without fear; go without shame; go without apology.
Go in the name of Jesus Christ.
Amen.
