Don't get me wrong, I know about all the controversy around using that word. But I used it because it's the most familiar, especially to people outside of "church" circles.
This year we're looking to do something quite different. Taking it to the streets. Where all the people are who are NOT "at church" that morning and reaching them with the Love of Christ.
The event will be at a park in Forth Worth and is sponsored by City on a Hill Connection (a network of churches). If it rains we'll just have to bring rain coats and galoshes!

Here's a list of churches.
And here's one testimony of the event in 2007 - Easter Like No Other

One year ago
It just hit me that you were actually about to be a full year old, when people would ask your age and I heard myself say "eleven months." I'd think to myself, "Really, my baby boy is about to be one year old, man!"
The day you were born! I was surprised that the Lord was taking a different route than I had expected, with your entrance into the world. But it was a blessing, nonetheless.
The weeks and months seem to have flown by since then. I'm thankful, though, that I've been able to go from being very much out of sorts with holding everything together around me, to being just a little out of sorts from time to time - LOL.
You're my baby who was probably the most thought out because as we pondered the though of having another baby or not, I thought a whole lot about how I came into the picture as baby number four as well.
I'm so happy we gave you that opportunity because it's so fun to see you toddle around here having so much fun watching your older siblings. It's also fun to see them fuss over you and are so excited to see you do interesting, new, and funny things!
I look forward to many many more moments with you as the baby of the family, and since I know what my own "struggles" can be with being last in line (and Daddy too), we can hopefully watch out for them, for you and help you win --- Win Win!! (Get it?)
Happy Birthday, Dubb!!!
