Call To Worship-
Pastor: Why do you seek the living among the dead? Remember how he told you, while he was still in Galilee, that the Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful people, and be crucified, and on the third day rise." He is not here. He is risen!
All: HE IS RISEN INDEED!!
Entrance Hymn - Christ the Lord is Risen Today, Alleluia!

Pastor: The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all.

Prayer of the Day

God of mercy, we no longer look for Jesus among the dead, for he is alive and has become the Lord of life.
