Easter Weekend

I wanted to share some pics from our "He is Alive" Celebration that we had the day before Easter. What an awesome day it was. We are not exactly sure of the numbers but we are confident that we had at least 500 people here at Woolsey. The day was filled music, fun, easter egg hunts (for preschoolers, children, youth and even adults) and praise to our Lord and resurrected Savior, Jesus Christ. What a way to celebrate His death and Resurrection! I thought about that idea all weekend. It must sound so crazy to the secular world that we Christians want to "celebrate" someones death. Aren't we supposed to mourn death and celebrate life? And of course that is exactly what we are doing. We are celebrating the eternal life that Jesus Christ provided to me and you and the death that He conquered by dying on the cross, paying our penalty in hell, and rising again from the grave! I actually can't think of anything more worthy of our whole hearted celebration! Enjoy the pics.
