Holy Week

We had a wonderful symbolic Seder meal together on Thursday after washing each other's feet in rememberance of Jesus' Last Supper with His deciples. This led very naturally into a very meaningful communion service. We continued our fellowship over sandwiches and fruit. Nobody wanted to leave!

On Resurrection Sunday, several of us joined in a joyful early service in the garden at the back of our building.

He is Risen - He is Risen Indeed!
We sang songs together and listened to the first part of a teaching by Kelly Liebengood, a teacher at Esepa Bible University. By the time we went inside for breakfast we were looking forward to the cool fruit juice as the sun was quite warm. After breakfast and fellowship, with some of our members going and others coming in, we continued in the teaching and the worship.
As people left, they kept saying that this Holy Week had been especially meaningful. Thank you Kelly, thank you to those who organized and cooked, but most of all - thank you, Jesus, for all that you did for us!
