The celebration continues

On Sunday we had a beautiful floral display as a backdrop to everything else. It was one of those little touches that went into making Easter a special day. The music, the sermon and everything else was accentuated because we knew that there would be so many more people coming together than in a normal week.

Funny thing is that in the life of the church there is never an end to preparing for special services. That's because wed look at every week as being special. It is another resurrection Sunday. Just because Easter only comes once a year, it doesn't mean that we don't worship the risen Lord every other week of the Lord.

So this morning we took some of the left over flowers and delivered them. We updated the web page and started working on next Sunday's bulletin. Letters went out reminding people of our softball practice next Sunday afternoon. An email went out announcing that Mercy Gonzales Barnes will be in the state for some gatherings beginning with a pot luck dinner this Friday at Central Baptist.

That is the great thing about church life. It never ends. There is always something special coming up. It is kind of like living with Christ. The blessings keep on coming.

So we will see you on Sunday when the adventure continues with another worship service and a date with our Lord.
