Dear (INSERT NAME),
Maundy Thursday is approaching. The term Maundy comes from the Latin word mandatum, or commandment—but what does this have to do with Maundy Thursday?
As the circumstances of Holy Week continue to grow dark and intense, it’s easy to forget which event happened on which day.
Dear INSERT NAME,
When they had finished breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon son of John, do you love me more than these?” He said to him, “Yes, Lord; you know that I love you.” Jesus said to him, “Feed my lambs.” A second time he said to him, “Simon son of John, do you love me?” He said to him, “Yes, Lord; you know that I love you.” Jesus said to him, “Tend my sheep.” He said to him the third time, “Simon son of John, do you love me?” Peter felt hurt because he said to him the third time, “Do you love me?” And he said to him, “Lord, you know everything; you know that I love you.” Jesus said to him, “Feed my sheep.” John 21:15-17
Resurrection Greetings!
What a wonderful time of year! New life is “springing” up all around us as Spring begins to overwhelm the winter!
Even for people in warmer areas who may not have to deal with shoveling snow or cold temperatures, there is something wonderfully encouraging about more sunshine as the days become longer.
Greetings in Christ!
I wanted to take this opportunity to send you this letter to invite you to our Easter Sunday Service on (DATE) at (TIME) here at (NAME OF CHURCH).
Matthew 28:6 (NKJV) 6 He is not here; for He is risen, as He said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.
The Angel was there to announce the Lord indeed had arisen from the dead and was no longer there.
Greetings in the Name of our Risen Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!
What difference does it make?
We have heard that question asked concerning various topics, and while a person may ask this concerning the Resurrection, we must realize it makes ALL the difference in the world… and in eternity!
