Right Reverend John Pritchard, the Bishop of Oxford shared his thoughts on Easter via the social media outlet. “Nothing is impossible. You can’t keep a good God down,” he tweeted.

Church officials are hoping that the social media movement will spark both personal contemplation and conversations amongst Christians.
