This powerful prayer service, with music and liturgical movement, celebrates God's love
for us in creating and re-creating new worlds. The Creation Story
is told in soaring poetry, after which we hear John's account of the
new creation (20:1-18), proclaimed by heart. Then Mary of Magdala
tells her story of encountering the New Creation in the person of
the risen Jesus. As the first disciple of the Risen Christ, and
apostle to the apostles, she is sent by him to proclaim the Easter
Gospel. Truly, Love propels her to go forth with the message, "I
have seen the Lord!" We conclude with prayers and personal
commitment to partnering with God for the ongoing creation of our
world today.
