Easter Equals Victory
1.  God gives it
2.  We live it

Prayer of the Day:  O risen Lord, you came to your disciples and took away their fears with your word of peace.  Come to us also by Word and sacrament, and banish our fears with the comforting assurance of your abiding presence; for you live and reign with the Father and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.  Amen.

Happy Easter!
