EASTER, WEEK SEVEN
“Then Jesus led them out as far as Bethany, raised his hands and blessed them. As he blessed them, he parted from them and was taken up to heaven. They did him homage and then returned to Jerusalem with great joy.”
LUKE 24:50-52
How would you summarize two or three learnings from this season of Easter?
O God of time and eternity, Christ has risen from the grave, Unleashing healing, wholeness, and flourishing like sunbeams across all creation.
May we now soar where he has led; May we be energized by every Alleluia! May we be renewed by bulbs once buried now bursting from the ground, and may hope sprout with every green blade rising.
Strengthened by this springtime ritual, send us to be the strength, support, and healing presence to every life in our care this day. We entrust our prayer to your great glory, now and forever AMEN.
