Eggs…this Easter.  It was unique for us to simply stay put this spring as we celebrated Easter at home.  Thankful for the time to simply be here, rest from sicknesses, and get projects done around the house, we were glad to reflect on God’s continual grace. 

I sat on the couch reading the familiar scripture, thinking on how we can so easily be Peter—fervent in one breath, and denying Him in another.  Then, broken by our sinfulness, and brought back to the cross of justice and redemption of grace.  It is impossible to fully wrap my head and heart around, yet I desire to know my amazing Savior deeper!

Easter came as a day of celebration and we found ourselves with staff friends.  We were elected to stuff and hide the eggs for the kids—250 eggs!  It was so fun to watch them all search!  We also spent time decorating Easter egg cookies with Yeung Gi, who is visiting for a few months from Korea to volunteer and learn more about camp.  We laughed at our crazy American egg traditions, but savored the icing from the cookies! 

Later Easter Sunday, Larry and I headed to Harvest Home Farm where we watched a baby lamb being born….ironic, the significance of that on Easter….lamb of sacrifice….new life….hmmmm….anyway, they decided to name the new lil lamb, “Holmes” in honor of Larry.  It was sweet to see and spend time with Mike and Becky and their family!
