Easter

Easter is coming up! Our favorite time of year! Why, you ask? There aren't lots of presents, or fireworks in the air, and not because there is lots of chocolate around either.... Easter is our favorite time of year because we remember at Easter time the greatest gift we've EVER been given. Do you know what that gift is??? JESUS!
We celebrate Jesus' birth at Christmas time, but at Easter Jesus made the ultimate sacrifice - he died on a cross, taking the punishment for all of the wrong things that we've done. But that's not the end of the story! 3 days later, Jesus rose again and is alive today!!! Because Jesus conquered death, He has given us the gift of living with Him in heaven forever! All we have to do is admit we need jesus because we sin, believe that he died for us, and choose to follow him and change the way we live to be more like him!
