Sunday Worship: Easter Day

Easter Sunday is the highest holy day of the Christian Year as we celebrate the victory of Jesus over hell, sin and death through His resurrection from the dead.

Pastor Shane will be preaching from Psalm 27 in our Psalter Sermon Series.

To prepare for service, please read the Collect and Lessons.
The Collect for Easter Day.
Almighty God, through your only Son Jesus Christ you have conquered death and opened to us the gate of everlasting life: by your grace put good desires into our minds and, in your mercy, help us to bring them to their fulfilment, through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Q16. Why must the mediator be a true and righteous human?
A. God’s justice demands that human nature, which has sinned, must pay for sin; but a sinful human could never pay for others.

Q17. Why must the mediator also be true God?
A. So that the mediator, by the power of his divinity, might bear the weight of God’s wrath in his humanity and earn for us and restore to us righteousness and life.
