April: Thoughts from Huw

Dear Friends

Easter Day is the greatest day in the Church’s calendar. Jesus has overcome death, not only for himself, but for all of us. The joy of Easter fills the earth, the joy that death has been conquered! Through the grace of the resurrection Jesus shows us that light is stronger than darkness, good is stronger than evil and life is stronger than death!

On Easter Day we still feel pain, our own pain and the pain of others. We also feel the pain of the world. But a new dimension has been introduced. It doesn’t remove the pain but gives it meaning and lights it up with hope. All is different because Jesus is alive and speaks his words of peace to us. So, there is a quiet joy among us, and a deep sense of peace. Jesus has broken the power of suffering and death. He has given us the hope of eternal life!

I look forward to welcoming you to worship at Wesley on Easter Sunday morning at 10.30am.

Happy Easter!

With good wishes and prayers
