This is the Good News –
The grave is empty,
Christ is risen
He is risen indeed! Hallelujah!
This is the Good News –

Christ is risen
He is risen indeed! Hallelujah!

And suddenly there was a great earthquake; for an angel of the Lord, descending from heaven, came and rolled back the stone and sat on it. His appearance was like lightning, and his clothing white as snow. For fear of him the guards shook and became like dead men.

It was at dawn on the first day of this week that friends from Highbury went up to Crickley Hill and celebrated Easter at Sunrise! You can also see pictures of the Passover Moon criss-crossed by vapour trails, and of the Good Friday walk of witness through Cheltenham Town Centre to the Wesley Cross in St Mary's Church yard. The limestone quarry in the centre is just like the limestone quarry at the Garden Tomb in Jerusalem.
