Million Egg Hunt Update!

What a night!!! I don’t think anyone of us that were there will forget that experience! I know we’re all glad it happens only once a year too!

I was amazed at so many people.

- I don’t think Debbie Williams and Donna Gray ever sat down. Tim Bolden took his family home and came back to help finish. Shami’s sister, Tanya and her two kids (Ashlee and Austin), were here on Spring Break from Las Vegas and stuffed eggs the entire night with us so did Pastor Ryan McCarty and so many of his people from God’s House. Mike Colyer came and represented Hills Chapel and we thank them for their help too. Dan Faunce, even with his battle with cancer, was the first one to show up around 5:30 (I think) and I know he was there past 9 PM! Pastor Garth and Phil wrapped so many bunnies and t-shirts for Saturday that I have heard they need to shoot off one every 15 seconds to get them all out into the crowd!!

I could keep telling more stories like this! I know so many of you did so much too! Your energy and efforts were just as valuable! THANK YOU NEW LIFE!!!!!!!!! Last night displayed one of the reasons why I love all of you so much! You make your Pastor smile and feel so blessed to be with you!

Let me give you an extra push this morning to continue preparing for the Million Egg Hunt with excitement and expectation.

Friday, April 2, 2010 at 6:30 pm we will gather again (not for 5 hours and I promise not one egg will be stuffed)! This time we will present to God all of the things during the past 40 days that we have removed from our insides as we have been drawing deeper into HIM! I must tell you that one person emailed me and told me that years ago they gave their life to Jesus and now they felt what they were to nail to the cross tomorrow night was “THE REST OF THEM!” WOW!

We will also be praying for all the prayer requests that have come in, in the past 12 months, praying for every chair in the Sanctuary for Easter Sunday and of course praying for the Million Egg Hunt itself too! We have planted the “seeds” into the Easter Eggs for 4 years now and I believe that the weather has been set up to be the best yet because there will be a harvest of souls Saturday morning and Easter Sunday!!

Just remember to not grow weary in doing good because at the right time (God’s time) we will reap a harvest of righteousness!
