Easter is so much more than bunnies and bonnets and baskets. It’s about celebrating the resurrection of Jesus and it’s a time for Christians throughout the world to join together and give thanks for God’s love. Easter is also a special opportunity for families and loved ones to come together and celebrate one another.
Since we can’t always be with those we care about and can’t tell them in person what they mean to us, it’s important to send out some warm holiday wishes. A wish chosen just for them will be like wrapping them up in a blanket of Easter joy. So before you go off to search for those eggs or sit down to an Easter feast, send someone you care about one of our uplifting Easter wishes.
