80 Best Easter Quotes & Spring Letter Board Ideas

easter letter board quote

There are so many celebrations of life — we celebrate birthdays, memorials, and sometimes even half-birthdays. One major celebration for Christians is the period in which they commemorate the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, known as Good Friday, and his resurrection from the tomb three days afterward, commonly known as Easter Sunday.

Easter is a holiday about hope, love, and rebirth. It's a day that's supposed to be filled with family and friends getting together over a traditional Easter supper, and kids running around on Easter egg hunts, filling their Easter baskets with candy, chocolate, and gifts.

For Christians, Easter is a time to celebrate the love that God has for us, and that he was willing to give up his only son, giving us a second chance at life and love.

Easter is the foundation of the Christian faith and is a significant day. Easter Sunday is the day we put on our “best” outfits, go to church, and eat a celebratory dinner to think about God and Christ, and their everlasting love.

If you are a person of faith, celebrate with this Easter scripture from 1 Peter 1:3: "Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead."

But there are other Easter sayings for those who aren't religious. Like Dolly Parton said, "I still believe in Santa, the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy, and true love. Don't even try to tell me different." Of course, there are other Easter sayings, like this quote from Kate McGahan: "The very first Easter taught us this: that life never ends and love never dies."

As for a good Easter blessing, one thing to say is something along the lines of, "We are all blessed at Easter, but I hope you feel some extra love and blessings from me."
