Opening Prayer
Almighty God, through Jesus Christ you overcame death and opened to us the gate of everlasting life.
Grant that we, who celebrate the day of our Lord’s resurrection, may, by the renewing of your Spirit arise from the death of sin to the life of righteousness;
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

New Testament
Luke 24:1-11
But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they came to the tomb, taking the spices that they had prepared. They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, but when they went in, they did not find the body. While they were perplexed about this, suddenly two men in dazzling clothes stood beside them. The women were terrified and bowed their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here, but has risen. Remember how he told you, while he was still in Galilee, that the Son of Man must be handed over to sinners, and be crucified, and on the third day rise again.” Then they remembered his words, and returning from the tomb, they told all this to the eleven and to all the rest. Now it was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the other women with them who told this to the apostles. But these words seemed to them an idle tale, and they did not believe them.
Message No Idle Business
Prayer God of Life, fill us with the energy and joy of Jesus’ resurrection, that we may engage in the active living of your good news, engage in resurrection each and every day. In the name of the Risen One we pray, Amen.
Song: One Thing Remains
Go, go from this place to be about resurrection in the world today!
And the blessings of God, the love of the Risen Christ, and the presence of the Holy Spirit be with you. Amen
