CELEBRATING EASTER!
Easter is a special time of year for all of us here at Good News. We enjoy coming together with our families to celebrate Jesus' resurrection - the defeat of death and the hope of salvation!

I love this quote about the season of Easter:
"Easter means to live with a sense of newness. The Easter spirit is a spirit of renewal that enables us to show up at work with a positive attitude, to renew relationships that have been taken for granted, and to express appreciation and affection to those closest to us."

May you be blessed this Easter!

Boxelder Bugs Love Spring!
Now that spring has spread across the country, we think it’s time to talk about Boxelder Bugs. To be fair, these elongated flat bugs with their red or orange markings are a more prevalent problem for our neighbors to the North. But they do still show up in Florida.

It's Springtime!
Spring is a good time to clear out the not-so-proverbial cobwebs, get ready for Easter celebrations, and prepare to reenter the “normal” world. Doctors also say spring cleaning has several positive physical and psychological effects on us.

A Very Special Easter
In this video, crayon drawings animate real-life responses from children as they talk about Easter. Their unfiltered and heartfelt responses bring humor and depth to the subject. Only a child could mix the silly and the sacred to so powerfully illustrate what makes the story of Jesus, and how we celebrate it, so special.
