An Easter message from Rev. Karen Georgia Thompson

It’s Holy Week, and United Church of Christ General Minister and President Rev. Karen Georgia Thompson offers a message of hope, joy, and triumph this Resurrection Sunday.

Thompson shares her thoughts about the relevance of the Risen Lord to what is happening in our world today. “Across time and cultures today, powerful people have attempted to decide what becomes of the lives and bodies of those deemed other, or politically threatening. Many know what it is to be dehumanized and vilified.”

The quest for justice continues, she tells us. You can watch the entire message here on the UCC YouTube channel:
