generosity in the Bitterroot Valley of Montana."

Easter Sunday - Sunrise Service


He is risen! He is risen indeed!

The festive day that is Easter began at Stevi UMC in the morning chill on the front steps of the church with ten hardy souls gathering for the sunrise service.

Pastor Charles read John 20:1-8 and shared the story of Mary of Magdala and the first Easter.

Together, we shared a prayer from the Signs Along the Way blog:


O God, week after week you arise, gathering Your people, proclaiming Your word of life, feeding us with food that    is eternal, sharing Your Spirit, and renewing the face       of the earth.

O God, transform us by this resurrection, that we may embrace all that You have made and live toward the justice that you intend through Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord. Amen.
