Last week was a busy week. Not only did we have Good Friday and Easter, I had a funeral to do on Thursday. The thing that I found out was that it was really busy. But I tried to make sure that I didnt get lost in the busyness of the week. It would have been very easy to get lost in making all those sermons and planning the worship services.
I am extremely thankful for people who are willing and able to help during a busy week. There is one person who really helped me with the planning of the Good Friday service as well as Easter. It was a relief to be able to sit with her and plan the service. It took a major weight off my shoulders. As a result I was able to enjoy the worship services on Good Friday and Easter and not be too stressed out about them. These are highlights of the Church year and to get lost in the busyness of it all would be a shame. It was great to hear the story of how Christ was crucified for our sins and then on the Third day he rose from the grave! A story that we hear each year, but yet never gets old!
I was thinking that I am probably not the only person who felt overwhelmed with how much was going on. A lot of people have big Easter celebrations. Many people get stressed out over these things. I am sure they too could have felt lost in the busyness. I hope that they too were able enjoy the special day and that they were able to remember why we celebrate this each year.

Exciting News
For those who read this, (I dont know who reads this generally), but you notice I dont post on Sunday's because generally I am too busy, tired, etc. But, my wife and I wanted to be able to share our exciting news with everyone. So, I thought it would be good to write this today.
My wife and I are expecting our first baby in October 2009. We are really excited about this, but also nervous as it is a major adjustment. That along with the fact we dont have our families near us. That is one of the hardest things about this, but know that our church supports us in all things. Anyway, that is our exciting news, I would love to hear any comments you migt have. Thanks
