Join us for Easter Sunday. We will hear the resurrection story from the Gospel of John and Pastor Teresa’s sermon is entitled, “Choosing Joy.

Death is natural. Loss is natural. Grief is natural. But those stones have been rolled away this happy morning to reveal the highly unnatural truth. By the light of this day, God has planted a seed of life in us that cannot be killed, and if we can remember that then there is nothing we cannot do: move moutains, banish fear, love our enemies, change the world. – Barbara Brown Taylor in “Home By Another Way”

Joy is an act of resistance against despair and its forces. – Willie James Jennings, theologian
