Holy Week: Easter

After the three services of Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter Vigil; the Sunday morning Easter service covers familiar ground. The services certainly were a musical showcase. Matt led a choir practice with Joel, Greg, Peter, Sue, Shirley, Liz, Craig and myself with the song I Go To The Rock and it was apparent that this long time choir favorite was going to be a highlight.

David played a trumpet fanfare at the beginning of the service that announced the special service. Matt was the master of the three ring musical circus as the music moved from one style to another. Kelly was playing guitar and the excitement of the service was palpable.

The choir sang and I Go To The Rock was a highlight. Even more so than usual there were a variety of musical styles and Matt was the ringmaster keeping the musical styles compatible and moving.

There was a fantastic fund raising breakfast for the youth between services and an Easter egg hunt for the children.
