EASTER MESSAGE 2007

My dear brothers and sisters in the Lord:

With inexpressible joy we welcome Easter and its good news. On this day, Christ, our hope has arisen. In Him sin and sadness, death and despair give way to the victory of His Resurrection. As we hear once again the news of Jesus’ Resurrection, we echo His disciple’s joy on that first Easter by singing praise to God. Alleluia! “…‘Yes, it is true. The Lord has risen and has appeared to Simon.’….” Alleluia! (Luke 24:35) This is the great event of our faith.

Jesus Christ died for our sins. “…He was buried and He was raised to life on the third day….” (1 Corinthians 15:4) With faith and hope, we continue our prayers for peace, for an end to war, for our blessed country Nigeria and this forthcoming elections and all our young Jobseekers who seek a better tomorrow and the victory of God’s love.

This Easter morning, let us to celebrate Jesus’ Resurrection, His victory!
A blessed Easter to you and to all whom you love in Jesus’ Name.
