Christ is alive and is present with us here and now

Dear Friends,
1 Corinthians 15 includes the words, “Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?” Some Easter mornings, when death feels all too near, those words land differently. For me, this will be one of those years, and I am thankful for the comfort of Paul’s words.
In early March, my family said goodbye to my mother. Her death has made this Lent and Easter feel closer to the heart of these words than ever before. Grief has a way of sharpening our awareness—of love, of absence, and of the beauty and fragility of our own lives. Grief comes in waves, sometimes quiet and sometimes overwhelming, and it has invited me to sit more honestly with both sorrow and hope.
As I walk this path, I find that my faith in life beyond death is something I am clinging to in a very real way. I do not claim to know what lies beyond, but I trust that love is never lost. In God, it is held, transformed, and carried forward.
On Easter morning, we will rejoice that Jesus Christ overcame the grave and broke the power of death for us all. We celebrate that each death we encounter in this life is not the end. The resurrection we celebrate on Easter is not only about what happened long ago—it is about the promise that love endures, that life continues, and that death does not have the final word. We rejoice that the presence of Christ is not contained by the limits of geography or time. The singular event we recognize on Easter morning resonates across the years into every aspect of our lives. Christ lives on. Christ is alive and is present with us here and now.
I am deeply grateful to be part of a community where we can hold these truths together— loss is painful and resurrection is real; people die and Christ remains. A place where we can rejoice and grieve, question and trust, all at once. Your presence, your prayers, and your compassion are a living expression of that resurrection hope.
This Easter, even as we proclaim, “Christ is risen. Christ is risen indeed,” I will be holding those words a little more tenderly, trusting that they speak not only to the world, but also into the quiet places of our own lives.
With you on the Journey (and thank you for being with me on mine),
Rev. Jen
