Easter is Sunday, April 8. Below are some resources you may want to consider using with your family to feel the spirit of Easter.

Watch the Church video “His Sacred Name—An Easter Declaration,” which focuses on key words from the scriptural accounts of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John that recount the horrific story of His Crucifixion with words like “rejected” and “mocked.” But it also includes words that portray Christ’s exceptional characteristics, such as “forgave” and “held His peace.” After watching the video, read the text of the video, which has links to make it easy to read each of the scriptures quoted, so you can more fully appreciate the context.

Read the article “‘Christ Lives’ Is Always a Message for Easter” in LDS.org’s Prophets and Apostles Speak Today.

Happy Easter!
