The Joy of Easter The proclamation of Jesus ' resurrection and the good news that he has triumphed over sin and death is the heart of our Christian faith. For that reason , Easter is the greatest of Christian celebra­ tions, and why in so many parishes this special day is a feast for all the senses. There are stirring hymns, bright banners and glorious flo­ ral displays, accompanied by the rn1mistakable smell of lilies. The freshness of the warm spring air gives an added lift to our spirits , as do the special meals and coffee hour gatherings that bring together families and friends. Happily, the joy we experience on this day may be extended throughout the great 50 days from Easter through to the Feast of the Ascension and the Day of Pentecost. Throughout this season we will hear and reflect upon some of the most memorable and powerful images in the liturgical year: the faith of St. Thomas, the breaking of the bread, the Good Shepherd, the Great Commission, and the gift of the Holy Spirit. Each week, there are many reasons to repeat heart­ felt alleluias. We extend sincere Easter greetings to all our readers , and pray that the joy of the resurrection will inspire and strengthen them Each week throughout this season. throughout the great 50 days, there are many reasons to HelpfulCritique repeat heartfelt Reports indicate that the March 22 speech by the Rt. Rev. Michael Langrish, Bishop of Exeter, had a profound effect on the House of alleluias. Bishops' spring meeting. In candid and sometimes blunt tem1s, Bishop Langrish offered a specific critique of the special commis­ sion's draft report and proposed resolutions , and challenged the bishops to unflinchingly consider the potential ramifications - both positive and negative - of General Convention's response to the Windsor Report. Bishop Langrish clearly articulated a fom1idable challenge now facing the Episcopal Church: the ability to adhere to the Windsor Report's vision for a strengthened communion while at the same time accommodating varying opinions on Lambeth 1998's Resolu­ tion 1. 10. Without a shared vision of life in communion, Bishop Lan­ grish suggests, there can be no communion. He also rightly pointed out that the repentance called for in the Windsor Report need not be understood in punitive terms. It also can be seen as responding in love to new circumstances, and changing behavior accordingly. We commend the bishop for his cm·eful listening and thoughtful and forthright response during the recent spring retreat. His per­ spectives have given the bishops , and the entire Episcopal Church, much to consider prayerfully in the weeks ahead.
