Why Sign the Petition to Celebrate Easter all in one date?

Simply, because as one Christian family we are divided on this matter and our division is a sin. When we cannot agree to celebrate the Feast of the Resurrection on the same day, how can we hope to be a sign of Peace and Unity to the world?

“I do not pray for these only, but also for those who believe in me through their word, that they may all be one; even as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.” (Jn 17:20 - 21 RSV)

“Whoever knows what is right to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin.” (James 4:17 RSV)
