Reflections on Easter

I hope that you had a wonderful Easter weekend!

I know for me it was a great weekend. We had 4 Good Friday services on Friday evening. We had a twist on our usual silent services which added some freshness to what we do each year. The most incredible thing was seeing how passionate people were worshiping after spending some time with the Lord in silence. We definitely live in a culture that is fast paced and chaotic. It was great to take some time out as a community and spend it quietly with the Lord.

Our sunrise service on Sunday morning was incredible. 2000 people braved the cold and the mist at 5:45 AM to worship and celebrate the risen King! It was awesome to take communion and worship together as a family.

Finally, our Easter service at Glen Helen was a blessing. Although it rained on us while we were in an outdoor arena, God showed up and touched people's lives in so many different ways. It was incredible to see so many people show up and worship in not so favorable weather conditions. I was truly blessed to be a part of it.

I hope that however you spent your Easter weekend, you had a chance to spend some time with the King of Kings. Blessings to your week!
