Alleluia! He is Risen! .... He is risen indeed!

During this Easter season we seem to be a little happier. The flowers are blooming, the temperature is rising, and the winter coats are being stored in the back of the closet. Things are especially beautiful in Church. On Easter, everyone is dressed so nicely and we seem to have a glow about us. But you see, it doesn't have to end. Every Sunday is a celebration of Easter. Every Sunday we could dress nicer and gather with family and celebration the things that God has given us. Every Sunday, we could show our gratefulness to our heavenly Father for his forgiveness and the sacrifice of His only Son. It doesn't need to end!

At our last meeting Judy, Andrew and Luz hid Easter eggs from the youth group kids. The eggs were hiden in some very inconspicious places. Great Job! We were able to see the competative side of some of our youth group members. Then we went inside and joined Sister Kathryn in a fun game of Guess Who I Am? This game is where each of us writes something that no one knows about ourselves and then we, the members, have to guess who that person was. You will never guess who knows how to play bass guitar!
