He Is Risen

He Is Risen Indeed!!

Happy Easter.  Last night, I heard a good message at my new church's Good Friday service.  Pastor explained, in simple terms, why Good Friday is good.  I felt bad for my daughter during the service, because they did not have a nursery, and my two young grandsons were extra chatty in the pew.  So, she left the sanctuary with them, even though I offered to take them into the nursery.  She was able to hear the message, and see the video at the end.

Today, my church is hosting a huge Easter egg hunt in town.  It's open to all kids up to grade five.  There will be a Gospel message, and over 1,000 plastic eggs with candy in them, all donated by members of the congregation.  I'm heading over there to watch my Munchkins gather eggs.  I got a great deal on bags of candy at Rite Aid, a few weeks ago.  My daughter warned me that last year the chocolate candy melted in the eggs, so I got Sweettarts, Jolly Ranchers, and Starbursts.  I love when the Lord puts stuff on sale when I need it the most.

I am heading to my daughter's for dinner on Sunday.  Her in-laws will be there too.  Instead of making Easter baskets with candy in them, I bought the older kids craft kits for us to work on.  I bought some clothes for the baby.  The hand-me-downs from his brother are different seasons.

Happy Easter.

Hugs,

Trish
