We had a wonderful Easter. What makes it wonderful, you might ask? Well, Saturday afternoon, I had the privilege of helping one of our pastors baptize 55 people from our Central Church. Baptism is always a joy, especially at Easter, when the meaning is so powerfully displayed in the water. Jesus died, was buried and rose again! Wow.
Sunday morning, we were invited to one of our sister churches here in town. We decided to take the girls from Dorcas House with us, as they were longing to be in church on Easter. I helped baptize 5 people from that church. I preached on Mary Magdalene and served communion. 2 people gave their lives to Christ this morning - Easter Sunday! Can you think of a better thing to happen on Easter Sunday?
This evening, we had all of our missionaries together for a ham and potluck supper. It was great to be together with these, our colleagues, with whom we are seeking to bring the message of Easter to bear on this country every day.
It was a good Easter. I hope yours was meaningful too.
