Easter is the hallelujah day of days.
The Messiah is risen--he is risen indeed!
I couldn't face going to an Easter service led by two male pastors today, so I didn't go to the church where I am a member. Instead I went to Mount Olive Lutheran Church (ELCA), two blocks from my home, where Stephanie Jaeger is the pastor.
She led a wonderful Tres Ore service on Good Friday, and my heart led me back to her church at 7 am on Easter.
After all, it was the women who went to the tomb who discovered the resurrection and raced back to tell the others. The male disciples thought it was "an idle tale."
Here are photos of the early morning service.
