SCRIPTURES TO REMIND US – HE HAS RISEN!
1. “As they entered the tomb, they saw a young man dressed in a white robe sitting on the right side, and they
were alarmed. "Don't be alarmed," he said. "You are
looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He
has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid
him. Go, tell his disciples…'” (Mark 16:5-7).
2. “He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told
you, while he was still with you in Galilee: ‘The Son of
Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, be
crucified and on the third day be raised again.” (Luke
24:6-7).
3. “He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come
and see the place where he lay.” (Matt. 28:6).
4. “Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he
live,” (John 11:25).
5. “And God raised the Lord and will also raise us up by his power.” (1 Cor. 6:14).
6. “We were buried therefore with him by baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the
dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life. For if we have been united with him in a
death like his, we shall certainly be united with him in a resurrection like his.” (Romans 6:4-5).
7. “For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with him those
who have fallen asleep.” (1 Thess. 4:14).
8. “For I know that my Redeemer lives, and at the last he will stand upon the earth…” (Job 19:25).
9. “That you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious
inheritance in the saints, and what is the immeasurable greatness of his power toward us who believe,
according to the working of his great might that he worked in Christ when he raised him from the dead and
seated him at his right hand in the heavenly places, far above all rule and authority and power and dominion,
and above every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the one to come.” (Eph. 1:18-21).
10. “He was buried, and he was raised from the dead on the third day, just as the Scriptures said.” (1 Cor. 15:4)
11. “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to
be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance that is
imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you.” (1 Pet. 1:3-4).
12. “And with great power the apostles were giving their testimony to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and
great grace was upon them all.” (Acts 4:33).
13. “Christ Jesus is the one who died—more than that, who was raised— who is at the right hand of God, who
indeed is interceding for us.” (Romans 8:34).
14. “He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord God will wipe away tears from off all faces.” (Isaiah
25:8).
15. “For as by a man came death, by a man has come the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, so in
Christ shall all be made alive.” (1 Corinthians 15:21-22).

ANNUAL LENTEN APPEAL The Annual Lenten Appeal for the Eparchy of Our Lady of Lebanon is now taking place. The Bishop's Annual Appeal is conducted each year during Lent to ask for support for the most urgent needs in the Eparchy. The Eparchy relies upon you to support our Maronite parishes, like ours, and train our future Maronite priests. Every family is asked to participate in the Appeal at a level which is meaningful for them and be generous. You can mail your donation, drop it in the collection basket, or make it online at https://www.stgeorgesa.org/donations/lenten/. Our parish's goal for this year's Appeal is $11,000.00.
