      Hymn: The Day Of Resurrection (UMH 303 v. 1& 3)

         The day of resurrection! Earth, tell it out abroad,
          The passover of gladness, the passover of God.
        From death to life eternal, from earth unto the sky,
      Our Christ hath brought us over, with hymns of victory.

      Now let the heavens be joyful! Let earth the song begin!
     Let the round world keep triumph, and all that is there in!
    Let all things seen and unseen their notes in gladness blend,
      For Christ the Lord hath risen, our joy that hath no end.

for thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever, Amen.

     Hymn: Up From The Grave He Arose (UMH 322 v. 1& 3)
             Low in the grave he lay, Jesus my Savior,
              Waiting the coming day, Jesus, my Lord!

                Chorus: Up from the grave he arose,
                with a mighty triumph o'er his foes;
               He rose a victor from the dark domain,
            and he lives forever with his saints to reign.
           He arose! He arose! Hallelujah! Christ arose!

           Death cannot keep its prey, Jesus my Savior,
        He tore the bars away, Jesus, my Lord! (Chorus...)

       A Celebration Of Disciplines: Celebrate Jesus! Celebrate

We Are Easter People.
The Risen Christ Knows Your Name!

John’s story of the visit to the empty tomb provides
two dramatic images of what kind of faith community
thrives in the wake of this glorious Easter morning:

1. The fast-running beloved disciple
An urgent Easter response that can remind the church that
it is the beloved community that can be quick to look for
the work of divine love amid tragedies and injustice.

2. Mary’s encounter with the so-called “gardener.”
Mary doesn’t recognize Jesus until He calls her by name.
In John 10:3, Jesus says that the sheep hear his voice and
that he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.
Later in verse 14, the Good Shepherd says, “I know my
own, and my own know me.”

Mary recognizes the risen Christ when the Good Shepherd
is heard calling out her name. Like Mary, we too long to be
known by God and to hear Him call out our names.

This longing is not generic; It's personal and relational.

Easter people make up a community whose members
have heard the Good Shepherd calling their names and
have responded to Christ by the Holy Spirit of God.

Christ touches our lives in tangible ways that leaves us
naming, claiming, and proclaiming the Good News of
this Living God’s amazing love for us.

Jesus told Mary to go tell the others what she has seen
and heard. We are called to do the same. We can’t run fast
enough. The tomb is empty. He is risen. He is risen indeed!
Happy Easter … Share the Good News … He is Alive!
