Resurrection Day Weekend

Saturday -
Our weekend started yesterday when I took the kids to an egg hunt in the morning. The line for admission was ridiculously long. The kids got a little antsy but finally we made it onto the farm. Little Fred put several eggs (which were plastic and empty) into his basket, dumped them out, and repeated the process several times in different locations.

Sunday-
Of course we went to church this morning. I was assigned to work at our new location. Living Word - Ahwatukee Campus. It is the same church. Just a second location about 40 miles from the main campus and more towards the city of Phoenix. We ran two services: 915a and 11a. Total between two services: nearly 600 people at the Grand Opening! That is amazing. God is brilliant.

The kids' outfits were compliments of Nana Ida (NyCee) and Auntie Camille (Little Fred). He was so engrossed in an episode of "Dora the Explorer" that he could not focus for the picture. Little Fred actually kept on his tie and shoes while at church. I was pleasantly surprised.

After church, we came home and crashed. Thankfully, we did not have evening service so I only had to work the two services at the new location. After resting, I took the kids to the park to burn off some energy. And it was a beautiful day!

"I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows)." (John 10:10b amplified bible)

The purpose of Christ's death, burial and resurrection was to provide new life and a new beginning. Embrace the gift God so freely gave. Let go of the past. Walk in the new beginning He offers you.

Happy Resurrection Day!
