President Russell Nelson asked the wards to only have one meeting on Easter Sunday. It would be dedicated to why Easter is so important in our lives. Our bishopric planned a special program that involved musical numbers interspersed with teachings from the scriptures about the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The ward choir sang, the primary children sang, there was a trio of young women who performed a beautiful number, a group of young men sang, an adult brother sang a beautiful rendition.
Before Easter Bishop Sroufe sent everyone in the ward a letter inviting us to read the scriptures and "Savor these sacred verses and find every way you can to thank our Heavenly Father for sending us His Only Begotten Son. Because of Jesus Christ we can repent and be forgiven of our sins. Because of Him each of us will be resurrected." We have a wonderful bishop, and this program was a wonderful, beautiful time to worship Christ and thank Him for His sacrifice.
