Easter Sunday

Adding on to Jennifer's Easter post.

Dan acted as Chinese Thomas and I acted as English Thomas. For costumes we simply used a sheet of poster board tied at the waist. Thomas talked about knowing Jesus the miracle worker, good teacher, and friend. Thomas went on to talk about crucifixion, resurrection, and doubting. Finally Thomas saw and felt with his hands the proof of Jesus Lord and God.

Elaine organized the children in decorating Easter bags. There were about 40 children and 400 eggs. The kids sprinted across the garden and all the eggs were found in three minutes. We put a message inside: 耶稣复活了 Jesus is risen!

Meanwhile, Frank was writing a poem. If you know Frank, did you know he can write poetry? His poem is so good. I offered a weak translation to get the main idea, but Frank’s composition is a refreshing, inspiring memory of this Easter Sunday.

胜日传经渌水旁

桃红柳绿满园芳

春风似是解人意

吹着福音散四方

Superb day spread the gospel by green water

Peach red willow green fill the garden fragrant

Spring breeze like understanding people’s wish

Blows the good news spread in all directions.
