Easter Sunday

“Christ is risen! He is risen, indeed! Alleluia!” If you're not familiar with this greeting, you should familiarize yourself with this greeting, since it's not going away any time soon. At least for the next 50 days. This is known as the Paschal greeting, and it replaces the traditional sharing of the peace in liturgical churches during the Easter season. Yes. I said “season”. Like Christmas, Lutherans (and other Christians) don't observe Easter only today, but for the next 50 days, and today is simply the beginning of this most glorious season. 

Blessed Eastertide,

Manny Tovar
