Haste makes waste

Unfortunately, I should not have posted that last blog, so I am deleting it. Thank you for all the support and comments that make me laugh!

At this time, Brad & I have to ask that the topic of our departure from RUMC be on the DL for awhile, as our livelihood depends on it.

Love you,

Not a Christian holiday for nothing

All weekend long I've been trying to teach not only elementary school kids the true meaning of Easter, but my 8th grade confirmation kids, as well. Some get it... some do not. Some kids ask the same questions year after year... "Why do we call it "Good" Friday if it is when Jesus died?" "How long was Jesus dead before he came back to life?" "What do you mean, the Easter bunny doesn't exist?"

While volunteering at Centennial United Methodist Church yesterday for our annual stint as directors of the beloved Easter Egg hunt at "Saturday Morning Kids Club," I heard an interesting comparison to our yearly "hunt" for Easter eggs with the "hunt" we are on every day of our life to find Jesus amongst the chaos and sadness we often face. But, just like we need to open our eyes to find hidden Easter eggs, we must also open our eyes to see the miraculous and mysterious ways the Lord is working, even when it might seem too much to bear.

And now, for a little humor...

Happy Easter!
