EVENTS
DEA EASTER REFLECTION 2024
Easter is about “tomb watches”. It is about love that keeps vigil and waits and believes in life, no matter how dark and empty and cold the inner space feels.
Easter is about hope that is willing to sit in the tomb while it trusts in transformation.
Easter is about faithful companions who keep watch with us and cheer us on as we wait for our inner resurrection.
