Eastertide

Eastertide is not a word we use very much, especially in evangelical circles. We barely use Advent and Lent. 

Eastertide is the liturgical season in Christianity that celebrates the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. It begins on Easter Sunday and lasts for 50 days, ending on Pentecost Sunday. 

Over this season, I want us to celebrate resurrection.

Over these next 6 weeks (from now until Pentecost), will you join me in focusing on Resurrection in our everyday lives? 

  • It can be as simple as a special candle you use for your meals during Eastertide 
  • or as elaborate as travelling across the world to meet new people. 

Whatever it is, will you show us a picture and tell us about it in a few words? 

  • Plant spring flowers (maybe a new variety this year)? Show us! 
  • Get up to see the sun rise on a Sunday morning? Tell us about it! 
  • Take a new route to work or school (maybe taking more time than necessary in honour of the mad farmer)? Share it!

3 simple steps to this:

  1. Add something to your day that helps you practice resurrection. (1day or 50 days - it doesn't matter)  
  2. Take a picture and write a description in 1-50 words.  
  3. Share it with me via an email, Facebook.
    I'll share some of your photo-stories with everyone here each week.
