Co-op Easter Program

Yvetta was very tired during the program - probably a combination of the time of day (mid-afternoon) and the McDonald's hamburger, root beer and sundae she'd had for lunch......very red, sticky cheeks and droopy eyes :) But, as she does when she needs lovin' and I'm busy, she went to one of her brothers. This time it was Corin and she took her blankie and laid down in his lap. He was, as usual, very accomodating and but his arms around her :)

Anyway, I digressed there.......yes - the program....

Luke reading from Luke.....

Luke's good friend, Mark, reading from Matthew..... and Laura reading from Luke (while Freda contemplates it all with closed eyes, Luke looks rather nervous about it all and Agnes laughs :)

The little play took place during these readings. We have the angels at the tomb, telling the women to not be afraid, for He had risen!!

Out of order, but here are the women falling on their faces before the brilliance of the angels.

The guards, who fell as dead men, before these glorious messengers of God.

3 women (2 actually mentioned, but we had 3 volunteers, so what could we do - and Yvetta needed Elizabeth to hold her hand :)

Off to the left of our impressive violin players is Kara - she gave up an afternoon of her busy life to play the piano for us.

Some incredible talent in our small co-op group! Below is Brett - another good friend of Luke's. Yvetta calls him "Bread", but he's very good natured about it :)

All songs to commemorate our Father's love for us, in that, while we were yet sinners Christ died for us. "And can it be that I should gain, an interest in the Saviour's blood; died He for me who caused His pain; for me, who Him, to death pursued. Amazing love, how can it be!"

We did a lot of group singing as well - such a joy to sing praises together. Below, Kevin recited/read Psalm 23 and Freda kindly MC'd the whole program for us.
