MONTHLY THEME APRIL 2007

Happy Easter

Once again it's the time of year where we celebrate rebirth. The Resurrection of our Lord is the perfect event to spark our innermost joy. We know through his example, that Life is Eternal. We know that the power of Death has lost it's hold on our spirits. With all the events in the world today it's important to remember this lesson on death and rebirth.

As we face challenges that seem overwhelming and insurmountable, let us use Jesus teachings and living example to combat hopelessness.When looking at our efforts in foreign lands and terrible wars, let us focus on a rebirth of PEACE in all the world. When looking at injustice and cruelty around the globe, let us meditate on a rebirth of fairness, human rights, and equality among all people.

When looking at the frightful effects of environmental pollution and global warming, let us unite in an effort toward the rebirth of Ecology and responsibility as caretakers for our planet. When looking at the division and confusion surrounding our religion's and faith's, let us pray for the rebirth of a spirit of unification and a shared understanding of tolerance and enlightenment.

Let us take the lesson of Easter and apply it to every aspect of our lives as we celebrate the rebirth of Christs will in our hearts. Let us all be reborn in his way.
