HAPPY RESURRECTION DAY!
The Angel said to the women. “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. Matthew 28:5-6
- Our theme for the month of April is “Wise men still seek Him”. The scripture reference is taken from Matthew 2:1-2 and it reads as such:
Matthew 2: 1 – Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem, 2- Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.
