Egg Hunt or Running of the bulls?




















Sunday was a really exciting day here at church.  The Lord started our morning out with beautiful weather, and the day just seemed to get better!  I was so proud of our church family who donated almost 1400 plastic, candy filled eggs for the kids.  There were eggs EVERYWHERE!  We had about 60 kids and it was great to see new faces, including faces from our Happy Time families.  The little ones had a chance, first, to find their eggs; when we finally released the older kids, I looked up, and it was like the running of the bulls in Barcelona.  I wished I had taken a picture of it, however, I was to busy running for cover.  The kids had a great time, and most of them got a ton of eggs. (Sorry Parents!)  After our hunt we had a great worship service that was filled with the presence of God.  He is so GOOD to us!  The entire morning was a wonderful time of celebration for our Risen Saviour.

Zach Dehart Takes the Plunge


I was so thrilled to see little Zach take the next step in his walk with Jesus, and choose to be baptized.  He had no reservations about telling the entire congregation of 296 people that he wanted to be baptized because he loves Jesus and wants to have Him living in his heart.  He walked into that baptism that was deep for him, to the point that he was "floating" when Pastor Joel dunked him, with all the confidence a little 6 year old could have.  Way to go Zach!
