Easter--American Style


After a week of Catholic traditions, we added our own American traditions to Easter with the dying of eggs and subsequent easter egg hunt. Certainly this tradition doesn't have anything to do with the real meaning of Easter, but it was fun to color eggs and eat some jelly beans that my mom had sent to us.
We had heard that many of the Evangelical churches did not do much to celebrate Easter sort of as a backlash to the ceremonies and traditions of the Catholic church. So we were happy that the church we attended had a wonderful worship team celebrating the resurrection of Jesus! The real reason for Easter. Christ is Risen. He is Risen Indeed!
