We are the Easter people and hallelujah is our song." Pope John Paul II, (1920-2005) "The first thing that stuck in the minds of the disciples was not the empty tomb, but rather the empty grave clothes - undisturbed in form and position." Josh McDowell, Christian Apologist and Writer (b. 1939) "The great gift of Easter is hope - Christian hope which makes us have that confidence in God, in his ultimate triumph, and in his goodness and love, which nothing can shake." Basil C Hume, (1923-1999) Cardinal Archbishop of Westminster StOM Page 2
