[Sunday] Easter Peace - Comfort Comfort
Even with the glorious news of Christ's resurrection, the disciples remained hidden, burdened by their actions. Yet, Christ arrives, a beacon of hope and unreserved comfort, offering peace in the midst of their doubt.
QUESTIONS FOR THE WEEK: Comfort Comfort: Easter Peace

Jesus encourages us to forgive others. Filled with the Spirit of Christ, how can you bring that peace and forgiveness to others?
