Happy Easter friends! I am still in the Easter mood because it was an AWESOME celebration this Holy Week in so many different ways! Starting off, on Maundy Thursday we celebrated The Last Supper (Passover feast) and then walked to & through the garden with Jesus in a service at our campus in Sandown. Then, on Good Friday evening we gathered and made our way to & through the cross in a powerful and moving experience at our campus in Amesbury. Over Holy Week we shared in 3 amazing connectional Saturday morning events in each of our communities of Sandown, Plaistow and Amesbury with community pancake breakfasts and egg hunts that allowed us to show the love of God to our neighbors and friends. Although we didn’t host the pancake breakfast at the Plaistow event, we were there on the Town Hall commons to give away numerous bottles of water, tons of coffee, dozens of donuts (all from Heav’nly's - thanks again Elaine!) and a Chunky's dinner & movie 4-pack prize . We also hosted an Easter story themed coloring station and bracelet craft for the kids to start the spark of faith in them. Between all 3 egg hunt events, we had the opportunity to reach out to 400 families at those events all together!
Then came Resurrection Sunday. All I can say is wow, just wow. Through the blessing of our Rock Church family, the power of personal invitation and the leading of Holy Spirit we had record numbers of attendees, visitors and salvations!
