Christ is Risen! Truly He is Risen!
Angels in the heavens extol Your Resurrection, O Christ our Savior. Count us worthy who are here on earth to glorify You with a pure heart. (Hymn of the Resurrection Service)
We greet you with the joy and love of the Risen Christ and pray that His everlasting light will continue to shine upon you and your family.
