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.
