Easter Day

The celebration of Christ's resurrection, which lasts from Easter Day through the Day of Pentecost, is the oldest part of the church year. This coming Sunday, March 31, we will celebrate the passover of Christ from death into life, and our own passover in Holy Baptism, in which “we were buried with Christ in his death and raised with him.”
