Easter Update

I apologize for not having an update shortly after Easter, however it is the start of the new session and with that as well as still working for Dr. Yu, I have been a little distracted. Easter Sunday, nearly all of us went to Haidian for a really good message and dynamic worship service with well over one thousand people, mostly Chinese. The church showed bits of The Gospel of John in between hymns and it was incredibly powerful. Afterward, the church revealed a surprise. They had groups of volunteers hand painting 5,000 eggs individually with intricate detail, most with scripture references in flowing Chinese calligraphy. The eggs in the picture I have attached are not from the church, but come from an article in the China Daily. I tried to get a picture of these but have you ever seen an easter egg hunt among a thousand people? After you got an egg, the church wanted you to give it to anybody else in the city and tell them the reason for why. This was probably the best Easter for me in memory.
