TO-MORROW WILL BE EASTER SUNDAY
Underlying everything that Easter means to you; is there not a deeply regilious instinct which inspires you
in an unconscious manner to seek that which the day celebrates? Good Friday and Easter—the Cross
and the Open Tomb, mark the the giving of Chistianity to the world. Not alone Christianity, but its
counterpart as well, Divine Love, exemplified in man by thought of fellow-man, human love and civiliza
tion. The world's symbol of Life Eternal is portrayed in the Resurrection.
The Church's Easter Message Is Life
Our life to-day is one of many vicissitudes to which we must adapt ourselves. But Death, which is ever
/S in our midst, never changes. Manv of us in the past year have experienced it within our circles. With <
1 I what manifold blessings does the Easter message come because of Death—for that message is Life—Life _ | [
SjZZ r—xP conquering Death—Life Eternal. The Triumph of Life will the theme of song, sermon and service in most
churches to-morrow. And how great is the comfort of the assurance of a Resurrection for us; that just as
our Redeemer broke Death's power; so can we who follow in His footsteps.
Thousands Will Hear This Message v
You should be one of those who will be in church to-morrow. The churches of Harrisburg extend a most
cordial invitation to you to attend any service that is held on this glorious day. If there is a church to which
you belong; you should be in attendance there. If you have no church relations; every church invites you.
The Easter message is yours, and in song and service you should allow your soul to fully embrace it.
