Easter-the Third Day

For Easter I reflect on the resurrection of Christ, from a biblical passage where angels question why individuals seek the living among the dead. Jesus’ spoke of his crucifixion and resurrection, highlighting the significance of faith in the promise of life after death. I illustrate with personal photos from the Loretto Chapel in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

“Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here; he has risen!

Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee:  

‘The Son of Man must be delivered over to the hands of sinners, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.’ ”

The HEART of Easter
