Celebrating Easter


This past Saturday on Easter weekend we were able to share about Jesus with the children of Yorishima town. We began our time together with an English lesson, teaching them how to say "Good morning," "How are you?" and "Fine. Thank you." Afterward we told them the real meaning of Easter. They knew that we had planned an Easter egg hunt, so we used that to share with them that Easter eggs are not what Easter is all about. We told them the story about how Jesus died and rose again so that we could have eternal life. This was the first time all seven of them had heard the Gospel! Praise the Lord! Afterward, we went to the park hunted for eggs. Then we came back to Setsuko's house and colored them. Praise the Lord that these little ones are beginning to be reached! Tomorrow, we will be sharing about Noah and the great flood. May the Lord bless our time together.
