An Easter Message From Rick


by Rick Allen on March 23, 2026

John 20:9 reveals something about people—we don’t easily believe or understand. When Peter and John arrive at the tomb and find the Lord’s body gone and His grave garments folded neatly, it is only THEN that they understand He must rise again.

That moment of revelation changes everything for them.

Why didn’t they understand everything before that point? Why were they surprised by the resurrection?

We humans are slow to understand. I am glad the Lord is patient with each of us and why His grace extends so far. Let us be mindful of this as we celebrate Easter this month. Let us also give and pray to help missionaries reach a world full of people who don’t yet understand.

Hundreds of millions need a witness, exposure to the gospel message, and abundant opportunity for the Spirit to bring them to a saving understanding of Him and a right relationship with Him.

Missionaries worldwide continue asking Light for the Lost for evangelism resource funding. We need your help. Thank you in advance for your generosity and intercessory prayer as we partner with the Holy Spirit to bring lost people to understanding the significance of the Empty Tomb.

Light for the Lost funds enabled these two pastors from Dallas, Texas (second from left and second from right), to deliver FireBibles to missionaries in Peru.

Three Peruvian pastors were the first to receive these gifts!

Click here to give an Easter Gift to an Assemblies of God missionary who needs funding for a specific evangelism resource. It could be something in print, audio, video, an internet technology, or an app. No matter what the resource, your Easter Gift will make a difference for that missionary, encourage them, and make sure he or she has something in their hands when the Lord gives them an opportunity to share the gospel with someone.

Thank you for your support!
