EASTER SUNDAY – The Disarmament
Lent is over and the season of Easter begins. At KANSA, we are celebrating the resurrection as the overthrow and disarmament of all earthly powers and kingdoms. While the nations may still rage, wage war and create systems of injustice, we, as followers of the Risen Son of Man, renounce the abusive and manipulative ways of empire–peace through intimidation and violence. We have joined God’s global peace initiative–peace through justice. The empty tomb is just the first sign of God’s new creation bursting forth, and there is more to come. Together with God, let’s wage peace until swords are beaten into plowshares and spears into pruning hooks.
