Cute and with a Purpose



This child is adorable - and demonstrates the importance of music in the transmission of the faith. She makes it clear that we should be diligent, deliberate and careful in our selection of music in worship. What we sing is what our children will know of God.

Happy Easter

Easter 2008 began with another record breaking attendance (shattering our old record!) as worshipers packed the house to shout Alleluia! The Lord is risen!

Children brought Easter baskets filled with brightly colored eggs.




















We celebrated the Sacrament of Holy Baptism!

Three young men were born into the Kingdom of Christ! And two young ladies received their first Holy Communion! See them all dressed in white?
















At the end of the service, Fr. Brad explained the symbolism of the easter egg and then gave the traditional Easter Blessing of the Eggs.




















Look at all these beautiful children. Thanks be to God!

Then came the recessional and we all went to the parish hall for a feast.
See the new Paschal Candle?





















Time to eat!

One very proud and happy grandmother.
















Let's get this part over with - there's candy to be found!















The child who is always happy.















YUM!





















Now that's a handsome young Anglican!




















Hey, Look. It's Fr. Michael's first Easter at St. Timothy's. Welcome, Fr. Michael. And thanks for all the Easter fun.






















And, finally, time for the Annual Easter Egg Hunt!


That smile is worth it all!





















This is serious work!





















Dakota hands out the awards. Thanks Dakota for all the hard work.
