Happy Easter

Today has been wonderful.
Absolutely wonderful.

Today, as many of you know, is Easter Sunday. Today we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Gathering with IDC this morning for worship was a glorious time of celebration. Eight people were baptized during the worship services, one of whom was my roommate Rachel. It was amazing to hear her share her story with our church family, and with great joy I watched her be symbolically buried with Christ and then raised to walk in newness of life. It was such a beautiful picture of the Gospel of Christ.

Later in the afternoon we went with a group from IDC to an apartment complex that has many international people, and we did an Easter Egg Hunt and passed out some food with the intention of building relationships and having Gospel-centered conversations. Rachel ended up meeting some ladies in high school. She's praying that shell have more opportunities to hang out with them and build relationships with them.

So, overall, it's been a grace filled day. The Lord has been so good and so faithful.

Blessings.

P.S.
My dad is home again. He was released from the rehab center on Thursday. So I know that it's exciting for him to be back home in a comfortable place. And I know my mom is thankful to have him back home with her.
