Prayer of the Month: April

April: The Joy of the Risen Christ

Risen Lord, the stone is rolled away, and death is defeated! In this Easter season, let your resurrection power shatter the divisions of our world. You stood among your disciples and said, "Peace be with you." Grant us that same peace to share with our community. Because you have conquered the grave, we no longer need to fear the future or our neighbors. We are your beloved, redeemed by the Cross. Let our lives be a "Hallelujah" that speaks of reconciliation, proving that love is stronger than hate and life is stronger than fear. Amen.
