Now that Spring is finally here, we here at McKeown’s Heating and Air Services are sure that whatever your faith, you will be looking forward to a well-earned break away from your screen and the opportunity for some time outdoors as restrictions ease from COVID-19 and of course chocolate (got to have the chocolate and peeps). Today is Easter which is the most sacred and important time for Christians of all denominations.
Most places of worship are having Easter services and also prayers online, including both traditional and modern services, as a way of coming together.
Easter is a special time. Christians remember the events leading up to the crucifixion of God’s Son, Jesus. Jesus willingly died as our savior and deliverer. He took our sin upon himself so that we might be set free from it. The good news is that on the first Easter morning Jesus rose from the dead and was seen by eyewitnesses who wrote down their accounts in the gospels we still read today in the Bible. The power of God raised Jesus from the tomb on the first Easter Sunday, so we celebrate the fact that Jesus is alive. One of the implications of this is that if death was not the end for Jesus it is not the end for us who trust in what God has done. Christians know that in a relationship with Jesus they will also have eternal life in God’s presence. Definitely, something to celebrate!
McKeown’s Heating and Air Services wish you all a Happy Easter!
