He is risen!

As the first rays of sunshine burst over the eastern horizon on Easter morning, Christians of all denominations gathered together on the Worcestershire Beacon to worship and proclaim ‘Alleluia! Christ is risen!’

In the Priory, filled with the scent of Easter lilies, the Paschal candle was lit and hundreds celebrated Jesus’ resurrection in services throughout the day, uplifted by music and inspired and encouraged by preaching.

’The resurrection shows us that nothing is stronger than the power of God…resurrection says ‘actually, no, we are made for life and to live with God in eternity’, confident that we can live generously without fear or the need to puff ourselves up. Death is just a doorway to something bigger and more.’

’Christ is risen indeed. Alleluia!’
