Easter April 2009

 After the three services of Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter Vigil; the Sunday morning Easter service covers familiar ground. The services certainly were a musical showcase. Matt led a choir practice with Joel, Greg, Peter, Sue, Shirley, Liz, Craig and myself with the song I Go To The Rock and it was apparent that this long-time choir favorite was going to be a highlight.

David played a trumpet fanfare at the beginning of the service that announced the special service. Matt was the master of the three-ring musical circus as the music moved from one style to another. Kelly was playing guitar and the excitement of the service was palpable.

The choir sang, and I Go To The Rock was a highlight. Even more so than usual, there was a variety of musical styles, and Matt was the ringmaster keeping the musical styles compatible and moving.

There was a fantastic fundraising breakfast for the youth between services and an Easter egg hunt for the children.
