Today is good Friday and a day to celebrate the redemption of the sins of many! That Jesus Christ died on the cross for the sins of those who believe, put their complete faith and trust in Him as their personal Lord and Savior.
It is quite different here in Namibia as we celebrate this day, and this weekend. Churches do not have Easter egg hunts, no Easter eggs hung from trees,and no word of the Easter bunny. The only thing you hear about, or at least that we have in our area is all about Jesus! It is quite wonderful!
For we know that death could not defeat Him. Just as the prophets prophesied, God brought Him out of the grave, alive and well in His new glorified body. Please join us in the celebration this weekend, and every day of the year.
John 6:35-40
35 Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me shall not hunger, and whoever believes in me shall never thirst. 36 But I said to you that you have seen me and yet do not believe. 37 All that the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never cast out. 38 For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will but the will of him who sent me. 39 And this is the will of him who sent me, that I should lose nothing of all that he has given me, but raise it up on the last day. 40 For this is the will of my Father, that everyone who looks on the Son and believes in him should have eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day.”

Weird, no eggs or bunnies? I always thought that was what Easter was all about...
