Passover Meal

This year we did a Passover Meal over Easter Weekend.  It was a great time to focus on all that God has done and is doing.  We had a great turn out.  It was fun to have our former members Ernesto, Estrella and their boys come back from Monterrey and be with us.  They are doing a fantastic job of serving God where He has placed them.  We miss them terribly but we are excited to hear how they are faithful to our Savior.  The Passover Meal is very interesting with all the symbolism involved with each food item.  Some of the flavors aren't my favorite but it is a very good reminder of the Sacrifice that was made on our behalf. (lamb)  The bitter herbs to me are a reminder that God is ultimately in  control of everything, including the difficult times.  Sam played the part of a man that came through a time machine and told us all of the events that lead up to the Last Supper and more.  A few children in the church came up to Sam later and thanked him for the mini-drama. The drama helped tie the whole evening together.
