A Message From Our Principal
Happy Easter!
We will be in the Season of Easter until May 20 (Pentecost).
In our prayer service this morning, we talked about John’s Gospel and Mary Magdalene recognizing Jesus at the site of his empty tomb. He tells her to go tell the Apostles that she has seen the Lord.
How many times have you looked at Jesus but didn’t recognize him? We see Jesus in the poor, widows and orphans, the CEO, the police officers, those who we don’t particularly care for. Every person has been created in the image and likeness of God, they all have Jesus within.
