"Easter is to our faith what water is to the ocean, what stone is to the
mountain, what blood is to your body." - R.I. Lindquist

To think about...
"Grace always demands the answer of gratitude.  Grace and gratitude belong
together like heaven and earth.  Grace evokes gratitude like the voice an
echo.  Gratitude follows grace like thunder follows lightning." - Karl Barth

Gratefully yours,
Pastor Mark
