This week, our family has been making a targeted effort to welcome people to church (with little invitation cards) for this week's special Easter service. Tonight (Good Friday) we'll be attending an open-air passion play (at the local court house and behind the public library, which includes a 3 block march through the streets with Jesus carrying the cross). Saturday, we'll be going with relatives to a city-wide Easter egg hunt (where we'll invite others to church), followed by egg decorating (which will include coloring phrases like "JESUS IS ALIVE" or little drawings of the cross or the empty tomb before we put them in the dye). Then, on Sunday, we'll be having a bigger-than-normal breakfast with relatives, followed by a glorious worship service (and our kids are excited to present a choreographed worship song, which they've been rehearsing for weeks). It's a wonderful time of the year! <abbr><em>Ann Dunagan’s last blog post..<a href="http://harvestministry.org/missions-in-april" rel="nofollow">Mission-Minded Ideas for APRIL - He’s Our Passover Lamb!</a></abbr></em> On our ministry website, we have many “Mission-Minded Family” ideas for focusing our thoughts on our Lord’s atoning death on the Cross and His glorious Resurrection!
