Worship Resources for the Season After Easter

As we enter the final weeks of Lent and begin to think more seriously about the Sunday after Easter here are some resources to adapt for your context or use as inspiration. The entire season from Easter to Pentecost is 90 days and is often referred to as Eastertide or simply the Easter Season. The reference to the Great Fifty Days is the time from Easter to Ascension day.
