He is Risen

As millions of Christians around the world know, yesterday was Good Friday and tomorrow is Easter Sunday. In some Christian traditions, today is known as Holy Saturday. Tomorrow, though, is the climax of Holy Week--the day when millions celebrate the risen Christ.

In our family we will gather with others and worship the Lord of Lords and King of Kings. We will do so with prayers and songs that focus on the significance of the event. I will, no doubt, shed tears as I sing "I know that my Redeemer lives. What comfort this sweet sentence gives! He lives, He lives who once was dead. He lives, my ever-living Head!"

I don't know how you will celebrate Easter in your family. I don't even know if you believe in the Christ; I know that many don't. Whether you believe or not, whether you celebrate or not, whether you sing or not, I wish for you an Easter Sunday filled with peace, joy, and a hope for a brighter future.

Special Note!

I've been publishing ExcelTips for years. Decades, actually. The newsletter you are reading right now is for very old versions of Excel. I still publish it because I know that some people are still using very old versions of Excel. Most people, however, are using newer versions of the program. If you are are using a newer version of Excel (2007, 2010, 2013, 2016, 2019, 2021, or the version in Microsoft 365), then you should seriously consider changing to the version of the newsletter designed for you. You can do so by clicking this link.

Thanks for your support of ExcelTips, and I hope you enjoy whichever version of the newsletter you receive. If you have any questions, just let me know.
