Recorded onsite at the opening of the new Rochester Riverside Church of England Primary School, Bishop Jonathan Gibbs, the Bishop of Rochester, shares his message for Easter.
The opening of the new school is a story of transformation and new life in that part of Rochester.
In his message, Bishop Jonathan contrasts it with the horrors being faced by children in Gaza, Ukraine, and countless other places torn apart by war.
"Our Christian faith requires that we should do all we can to resist the powers of death and destruction, including by calling the world’s leaders to the path of justice and peace."
He reminds us that the message of Good Friday and Easter is that victory over death has happened once and for all through Jesus Christ and is possible even in the darkest places of our world.
