It's been a while


Well, seeing it was early in Lent when I wrote anything, it's time for another post. I've been very busy at my church and having a great time. I went to Gatlinburg, TN, and came back on Maundy Thursday to lead a service that night and a Good Friday service the next day. Then came Easter Sunday!

This "busy"ness was all wonderful to me, keeping me in things that are most important: spending time with my family, my friends, seeing beautiful mountains, and celebrating our last week of Christ.

I highly recommend renting a cabin up in the Smoky mountains. Our cabin was magnificent, and the scenery was its rival.

It's exciting to actually celebrate 5 weeks of Easter. I have never done that before. Usually, Easter came and went, so did the chocolate bunnies. The Easter lillies even die off as well. But to keep that spirit of resurrection alive for 5 whole Sundays certainly helps us Christians keep that spirit every Sunday of the year. Happy SEASON of Easter!
