The 13th annual Easter sunrise service at Green Acres Memorial Gardens in Scottsdale begins at 6 a.m. Easter Sunday beneath a 40 foot cross. Rev Wayne S Womner opens with greeting, Rev L A Edmonds delivers the message, and Rev Arthur C Lambourne reads scripture. Public invited for refreshments and fellowship after. Gardens lie midway between Scottsdale and Tempe on Hayden Road, 34 miles south of McDowell.
The cross as a Christian emblem is unique among religions and confounds non believers. Christians see Jesus death as a purposeful act benefiting all humanity, while the cross symbolizes a moral order where evil merits punishment and God offers mercy despite human failings.
