Reflects the Meaning of Easter

Annual Ceremony

by Robyn Hatch

Easter Sunday at Triumphant Cross Lutheran

Church on Zion Hill Rd. in Salem marked another beautiful ceremony outside in the Memorable Garden. The Rev. David Yasenka has a way of making the ceremony feel very special—making everyone listen, pray, and enjoy the words of the Bible on Easter.

“Christ has been risen from the dead, the first fruits of those who have died. For since death came through a human being, the resurrection of the dead has also come through a human being; for as all die in Adam, so all will be made alive in Christ. But each in his own order; Christ the first fruits, then at his coming those who belong to Christ. Then comes the end, when he hands over the kingdom to God the Father, after he has destroyed every ruler and every authority and power. For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet. The last enemy to be destroyed is death. The Word of the Lord.”

Senator Shaheen Visits LNX Corporation

by Robyn Hatch

Senator Jeanne Shaheen came to Salem to discuss exporting with LNX Corporation; specifically, the economic benefits involved. Earlier in the day, Shaheen had hosted the Granite State Export Forum in Manchester to help New Hampshire’s small businesses identify and access the resources available to help them explore export opportunities and expand into new markets. New Hampshire trade officials report that export activity now supports more than 40,000 jobs in New Hampshire. LNX Corporation is a designer and manufacturer of sophisticated radar and communications equipment. The company has grown steadily since its founding in 2001, and now employs 68 people. Nearly half of its sales are in exports. This was a pleasant visit with knowledge shared and gained all around.
