The Memorial 2024

How many times do we humans reflect
On one of the most famous moments in history?
And this is the key to unlocking
The answers to what once was a mystery!

"One man sinned so death spread to all"
How often angered this makes people feel.
To balance, "One died so all could live"
And every wound this one would heal.

On Nisan 14, two millenniums back
After the sun had set,
A remembrance service was established.
Kept simple so none would forget

The value of this person's life,
The purpose of this special occasion,
Why this event strengthens the hope
Of hearts filled with deep appreciation.

On March 24th after sundown this year
You are warmly welcome, one-and-all
To join us in remembering Jesus' love
At your nearest Kingdom Hall.

To learn all about what Jesus did,
What he will do in the future, and more...
