Even at the very end of His life, people were still wondering who Jesus was. In His trial before the Sanhedrin, they asked, "Are you the Messiah, the Son of the Blessed One?" and when he was before Pilate, he asked, "Are you the king of the Jews? Yet one Roman Centurion proclaimed, "Surely this man was the Son of God!" when He died.

Jesus Our Risen Lord!

On that first Easter morning, Jesus' followers learned one more amazing thing about who He is, that He is our risen Lord. The tomb was empty, the angel proclaimed it, Jesus had said it about himself, but they only came to truly understand it when they had a personal experience with Him.

You're Invited!

Kids are invited to our Easter Party to celebrate our Risen Lord.
