Easter

I don't know about you, but this year is flying by! Everyone seems as busy as ever, and EASTER is fast approaching! So that brings me (Esther) neatly on to the subject for this week...

'The real meaning of Easter'
how easy it is to get caught up in the commercial side of Easter, without reflecting on why as Christians we celebrate it. God sent his one and only Son Jesus to die on the cross to take away our sin and the punishment we so deserve. He died, and yet even death had no power over him, Christ rose victorious and is alive for ever more! If you put your trust in God and believe that he died to take away your sin you also may experience new life in Christ

This was a real challenge for us as a design team, do let us know how you get on.

DONT FORGET WE ARE NOW POSTING EVERY THURSDAY!

Hi! Got to look at Hazel's first, as we know each other on another forum. Love her use of colour: pink is not a colour I would associate with Easter, but it gives it a lovely warmth.

Again I am trying to remember those bits of the Easter liturgy I only half remember ... and twitching to make something of them.

Ruth's PASG intrigues me - where does it come from? I am aware of Paschal referring to things around Easter, like the Paschal candle, but can't place PASG. Love the banner design she's done.

This is exciting to see such a big team! I haven't been visiting online much, so I've missed the last couple of challenges. I do have an easter card posted, however.http://encouragingimpressions.blogspot.com/2009/04/from-grief-to-joy.html
