Easter Sunday

What a busy and blessed Ressurection Sunday! The night before we dyed easter eggs and I must say the MKs were VERY creative with the wax crayon drawings!

Easter began with a sunrise service on the beach. The moon was very bright when we arrived and was soon overshadowed by the rising sun. We had a bilingual worship service with our Honduran staff and friends and then many people shared and gave testimonies.

After church we had a huge potluck with awesome food! We ate so much that I was dragging when we were trying to hide all the eggs for the Easter Egg Hunt. At first some of the teen MKs said they were too old for an Easter Egg Hunt. I insisted that you are never too old to have fun! Once it got started they were of course the most competitive and very optimistic, carrying around huge buckets to put their eggs in!!!

Hannah and Cory were the winners, (with a few donations from their older siblings).

Then the youth insisted we play capture the flag because it is an Easter tradition. Many of you know that I don't particularly enjoy running, however, when you are chasing someone to put them in jail I guess it can be a little fun! I must admit it's a bit embarassing when the 10 year olds can outrun me half the time....

After getting all sweaty in the hot sun, we headed to the beach to end our Easter day watching the sunset. It was pretty awesome to start the day praising God at sunrise and then thank Him for His sacrifice for us at the end of the day on the same beach.
