After returning from church I had Trey pose with me outside for several "candid" shots. They look terrible. We're squinting, sleepy looking, and just all around kind of bleh. I was very quickly reminded that even in a simple task like wanting to share with you, a family picture, my mind was distracted and I was quickly forgetting the point of today. Oh how narrow minded I can become.
We had a great first Easter Sunday in Haiti church service this morning. Every song we sang focused on Christ and the cross. Croix (French) or Kwa (Creole). It was beautiful to be so vividly reminded that the Redemptive Story is a story for the whole world to know. Pastor Edrice spoke on the power of the resurrection. He gave a variety of reasons as to how the resurrection makes everything we know complete!
After church the staff here at BHM gathered for some ham, green bean casserole, and Kenscoff salad (a Haitian staple for Easter).
After the realization that a super cute Easter picture is totally NOT necessary for today, I managed to talk Trey into snapping one more shot after changing into perfect comfy Sunday clothes...
Joyas Pak, tout moun! Sonje, ak Jezi tout bagay byen.
Happy Easter, everyone! Remember, with Jesus everything is well.
You & Trey do look comfy ! Happy Easter ! Lorene Botner brought the song on her phone to Sunday School. She loves your blog. Mommaw Peggy
