Happy Resurrection Day!!!


We hope that each of you will have a very blessed Easter today. We sure did! Our day started out at Sunrise service overlooking the beautiful ocean. Lee was asked to be the preacher for this service and he did a fine job. He challenged us all to "look" into the empty tomb and believe that we serve a risen Saviour. We followed the morning up by having breakfast there after the service with those who attended. A few hours later we were off to our regular chapel services. Gracie and Abbie participated in a presentation by the children of the chapel and again Lee preached another great sermon about what Christ's resurrection means to us today. After chapel we again fellowshipped and ate with folks who attended. This afternoon we held the 2nd annual Easter ball hunt in our yard. Yep you read that right. Not an egg hunt but a ball hunt. Not that we are against hunting eggs but last year we waited too long to buy eggs and none were to be had on Guam. Lee cleverly came up with an alternative. We bought a bag of 100 balls like you would put in a kids ball pit. They came in all different colors. We hid them all over the yard and the girls hunted. After the hunt they could exchange the colored balls for prizes. Like each red ball would be worth 2 bite size Milky Ways and each green ball would be worth one dollar etc... Of course we did not tell them that to begin with or they would have fought for the green ones! In the end they each got a pile of candy that they traded with each other until each had their favorites. Caitlin LOVES Peeps! This evening Lee drove out to the prison and participated with the inmates at their chapel in their Easter service and once again preached about the resurrected Jesus. I was not there but I know he did a great job. So that was our day. You can see all the pics from today on our picasa web album. It will be labeled Easter 2007. Enjoy! He is risen indeed!!!
