Easter is my favorite. Nothing makes me more jubilant than singing "Jesus Christ is risen today!" on Easter morning... every day should be like that. But Easter is special, it just is. Especially after the Good Friday service, reflecting on Christ's sacrifice on the cross, I am so ready for Sunday morning at the end of Holy Week! I am pumped up, knowing that Christ died to redeem me from sin, but even more importantly that He is RISEN, RISEN INDEED!!!
It's important to remember that "It's Friday. But Sunday's comin'". Perhaps you've heard that famous sermon by Tony Campolo. Watch this video... it's a great reminder of what Easter is really all about!
In the meantime, we've got all kinds of festivities planned: Easter Egg Hunts galore!
Here's what's going on with the Nourses for Easter 2010:
