He is Risen

He is risen. He is risen, indeed.

Today is the day we celebrate the hope of our faith; the resurrection of Jesus Christ. I pray that your day is filled with joy and rest! May you enjoy times of refreshing with your families and friends as well as the hope of life. Christ the Lord has risen today. Hallelujah!

This morning we held a sunrise service on campus at Shelterwood. 6:30am on the hill near the cross. Not too many teens showed up at first, but by the time we started, about 20 total folks had trickled up the hill. It was quite cold and the ground was filled with the morning dew. We laid out a tarp for folks to sit down on but it did not save my shoes from getting wet. Between each worship song, I had to warm up my hands to keep the circulation going. One of our big brothers, Adam, shared an Easter message while the kids bundled up on the tarp with blankets. It warmed up today in KC to around 70 but it was in the 40's as we celebrated a special service.
