Easter Thoughts from St James Episcopal on Resurrection Hope
Pastor B Nash reflects that every Sunday is Easter and the risen Jesus inspires joy. Early Christians gathered weekly, observed the Last Supper, and linked Easter to Passover timing. Easter remains the greatest festival, promising future life and soul permanence, guiding unselfish conduct and comfort. Easter services at St James church are 7:30 a.m. Holy Communion and 11:00 a.m. Holy Communion and sermon, with baptisms at 3 p.m.
