excitement of Lent and Holy Week.<br \/>\nThe message of the risen Christ in Matthew 28: 1620 is clear, &#8220;Go and make disciples.&#8221; This text is an active challenge for all believers to become teachers (it is the only way to have disciples) of God&#8217;s grace through the Good News of Jesus Christ to pass from generation to generation the message of salvation.<br \/>\nJesus&#8217; locus as a disruptor of the heavenly king90m into human history is a loud proclamation, not just of God&#8217;s grace and sovereignty, but of a game plan for those, us, who are part of His will of salvation for all (John 3:16-17). To ourselves Christian is to sign up for a covenant of spreading the to all humanity -without exceptions. This sacred task also entails loving humanity and rejecting hatred for the gospel&#8217;s sake.  It is after Easter that the mission starts.  Let us Go in Jesus&#8217; name.  Halleluia!<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post__read-more-wrapper\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<a class=\"elementor-post__read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lvilc.org\/april-2024-newsletter\/\" aria-label=\"Read more about April 2024 Newsletter\" tabindex=\"-1\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\tRead More \u00bb\t\t<\/a>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post__meta-data\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-post-date\">\n\t\t\tApril 4, 2024\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/article>\n\t\t\t\t<article class=\"elementor-post elementor-grid-item post-5337 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-message-from-pastor-eric-miletti tag-homepage\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post__card\">\n\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-post__thumbnail__link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lvilc.org\/message-from-pastor-eric-april\/\" tabindex=\"-1\" target=\"_blank\"><div class=\"elementor-post__thumbnail\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lvilc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/From-The-Pastor-300x150.png\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium wp-image-5276\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lvilc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/From-The-Pastor-300x150.png 300w, https:\/\/www.lvilc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/From-The-Pastor.png 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/div><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post__badge\">Message from Pastor Eric Miletti<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post__avatar\">\n\t\t\t<img alt='Shirley Stanush' src='https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/09b3d8fa2ddb62456e45fbc082d68f12?s=128&#038;d=mm&#038;r=g' srcset='https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/09b3d8fa2ddb62456e45fbc082d68f12?s=256&#038;d=mm&#038;r=g 2x' class='avatar avatar-128 photo' height='128' width='128' \/>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post__text\">\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-post__title\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.lvilc.org\/message-from-pastor-eric-april\/\" target=&quot;_blank&quot;>\n\t\t\t\tMessage from Pastor Eric &#8211; April\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post__excerpt\">\n\t\t\t<p>Christian Life After Easter<br \/>\n&#8220;Then go quickly and ten his disciples, &#8216;He has been raised from the death, and indeed, he is going ahead of you to Galilee; there you will see him.<br \/>\nThis is my message for you. &#8220;Matthew 28:7<br \/>\nThe biblical text above is the angel&#8217;s message to &#8220;Mary Magdalene and the other Mary &#8220;l when they went &#8220;the first day of the week&#8221; to see the tomb where Jesus had been buried.
