Celebrating Easter Morning at The Church of The Epiphany, Gurgaon

Today's Easter Day celebration was a special one at the Church of the Epiphany, Gurgaon as it was the last service undertaken by the Presbyter in Charge, Revd. Daman Rodgers before his transfer to another church in Delhi.

It was both an emotional moment as we bid a warm farewell to our beloved Presbyter, and more so as it was a celebration of the risen Lord. We were treated by amazing praise and worship by our choir, the Sunday school children and an individual number by one of our younger members.

Without saying much, I am sharing some of the photographs that my brother Sanjay and I took on the day. A special thanks to Mr. Sunil Sannoo, the Secretary of the Pastorate committee and all those who worked behind the scenes to make the day memorable. We wish Revd. Daman all the best as he takes up new responsibilities in his new church! Greetings to all the Church members and their families on the occasion of Easter, prayers and best wishes for a Happy Easter, and celebrating the promise of the Risen Lord.
