Statement from Mayor Stimpson on Easter

Apr 5th, 2015

MOBILE, Ala.- Jean and I are pleased to join Christians across Mobile today in celebrating Easter and the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

As it says in Peter: "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."

As I reflect on His sacrifice on this joyous day, I am reminded that Easter is a celebration of faith and a belief in a better day to come. We celebrate the day by loving God and loving others.

On behalf of my family, I wish you a blessed Easter.
