The pink post-its represent "our sin." |
In our small groups, students were encouraged to look at what Jesus had to say about sin. We also read what Paul had to say about how difficult it is to avoid sin.
As we observe Good Friday, we recognize this as a day where the sins of humanity got the best of us and led to us putting to death the one person who had never sinned.
May we take the time to observe this Holy Weekend just how much history was changed. May the story of Jesus's death cause us to rejoice all the more that evil did not have the final word.
As we join with millions of Christians around the world, tonight we mourn all that is wrong in the world and in us. We mourn the death of Christ. Tomorrow we dwell in the agony of waiting and the difficulty of uncertainty. And as the sun's first rays peek over the horizon on Sunday morning, may we shout with all of creation that "CHRIST IS RISEN! HE IS RISEN INDEED!"
