Easter, a customary holiday, is regarded as one of the holiest times of the year. It's a time when we recall Jesus' Resurrection and celebrate the anniversary of his ascension into heaven. As a member of the Social Justice team, I always focus on sharing God's love with the world during this season. Jesus' resurrection serves as a reminder to us that God is the source of everything.

In the book of Matthew, Jesus instructs us to overcome our fears. To serve everyone who comes our way and to follow Jesus as we exercise dominion with him. ‘Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you. And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age’. Matthew 28:19–20. And keep in mind that I will be at your side till the end of time.

Let this verse sink into your soul. Keep in mind that Jesus is ever-present, and that the resurrection has given us new information concerning the Gospel. Every year, we are aware of how lucky we are to live in a community where we can continually give back. Celebrate with your loved ones as you extend Jesus' generosity to every part of your life. Even if it's just a small gesture that barely brightens someone's day, I'd like to celebrate Easter this year by doing something kind for someone else. The Social Justice team wishes you luck in finding a way to give back to your neighbourhood this Easter.

Let God continue to bless you – Christ is Risen!
