Easter


Lord,

Help all of us to really understand the depth of your love for us this Easter and let this time of celebration and remembrance remind us of what you did for us,....for this world and live that GIFT you gave us!


A Prayer for Lenten Reflection


Robert W. Guffey, Jr.


O Lord
We stand with You before the tomb
of Lazarus and proclaim with You
ROLL BACK THE STONE
We yearn for the rightness of the return
of One who was dead but now lives
ROLL BACK THE STONE
We pray to hear your call,
to be your beloved also
that we might awaken, arise
to the newness of our salvation
to life eternal, to love that
no matter the darkness
never lets us go.
ROLL BACK THE STONE.
Amen.

5. Start an Fellowship of Christian Athletes club at a local jr high or high school.
