"Now if Christ is proclaimed as raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised. And if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain and your faith is in vain. And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins. If in Christ we have hope in this life only, we are of all people most to be pitied. But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. For as by a man came death, by a man has come also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive. When the perishable puts on the imperishable, and the mortal puts on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written:
'Death is swallowed up in victory.'
'O death, where is your victory?
O death, where is your sting?'
The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain."
1 Corinthians 15:12-14, 17, 19-22, 54-58 ESV
Though the world would like for us to believe that the resurrection was only an April Fools joke we know that He has indeed risen and that His return is nearer every day.
Happy Resurrection Day!!!
For my birthday my amazing parents contacted my amazing friends and arranged for coffee/ice cream and a trip to la cancha to buy a quilt for my room.
Kathryn baked me a cake. While watching a movie, we ate it with strawberries, and cream after pizza.
Dressed Damaris up in my sweater and scarf.
The quilt from la cancha.
Easter was pedestrian day, which is a big event here.

I intended to post that yesterday, I went to church and then spent the day with Kathryn and Gustavo, I was pretty sick all afternoon and I didn't get to my room until late. I spent the day today in bed, hoping to get over this soon!
