Easter

Easter is the heart of the faith. Christmas, Good Friday, Pentecost, these all matter of course, and the faith can’t stand apart from any of them. Yet Easter – celebrating God’s act to raise Jesus from the dead and create a new possibility and new future – is where it all begins, and where we all return.

This picture of a congregation celebrating Easter in Malawi is part of a series of pictures of Christians celebrating Easter around the world on The Huffington Post. It’s encouraging and enlightening to see Christians united by faith in the resurrected Christ celebrate Easter in so many diverse ways around the globe. You can catch the rest of the photos here.
