Easter 2 Meditation
This Sunday we explore the doubt that is a part of faith and the role of community in being present to that doubt.
Our Poem recognizes the role of Thomas as a vital ancestor of our faith.

Our prayers continue from Feasting on the word!
And please sing along with the Hymn: Christ the Lord is Risen Today! (v.1-4)
1. Christ the Lord is Risen Today, alleluia!
earth and heaven in chorus say, alleluia!
Raise your joys and triumphs high; alleluia!
sing, ye heavens, and earth reply: alleluia!
2. Love’s redeeming work is done, alleluia!
fought the fight, the battle won, alleluia!
Death in vain forbids him rise, alleluia!
Christ has opened paradise, alleluia!
3. Lives again our glorious King, alleluia!
Where, O death, is now thy sting? Alleluia!
Once he died our souls to save, alleluia!
Where’s thy victor, boasting grave? Alleluia!
4. Soar we now where Christ has led, alleluia!
following our exalted head, alleluia!
made like him, like him we rise, alleluia!
Ours the cross, the grave, the skies, alleluia!
