A Special Time at Trinity:

Mr. Carl reads The Easter Cave to the class.

Let's Hop to it and tell you about Palm Sunday for the Church School Children.

The day began in the Church...the Children gathered, with the congregation, for Mother Susan's beginning of the Palm Sunday Service and after the Palms had been blessed, they Paraded up the aisle towards the altar. The Children then Paraded right out of the Main Church into the Education room.

While the children reviewed the Easter story - all the Bad and the Good- -the magic of the Easter Bunny was happening in the hallway and three rooms in the annex. The hiding of 200 eggs (filled with chocolate) was taking place and I guarantee you that Bunny Ears were in place while this was happening, so, ,the delivery was an official visit!

Before the fun of the Egg Hunt - the children were given hand held mirrors that had little notes, on the top and bottom of the mirror, that said - "See the BEST in YOU! and "What Would JESUS Do?" They were encouraged to look in the mirrors everyday. It reminds them that they are looking at one of God's Greatest Creations, to be good people, and that they may talk to God ANYTIME!

By then, it was time for the HUNT and the Children were READY!..They all had decorated bags with assigned numbers to gather the Eggs,.. and you could feel the excitement as the children from the Nursery and Church School gathered together. They needed to find 10 smaller eggs with their number on it and one LARGE EGG! There were also unmarked eggs throughout that they could collect. . Favorite Moments - the children helping each other out and the SMILES when they were allowed to open one egg once they had collected all of their eggs.

It was a Joyous Time during this Season of LENT. 

The Children know it is okay to give some time to the Easter Bunny BUT that this is truly the Time of JESUS! 

Have a Wonderful Easter, and remember to wake up everyday with "Good Morning, GOD!" and "Thank You, GOD!" 

All the BEST,

Mr. Carl and the Whole Church School Team
