We pray that this you well and that you had a wonderful and blessed Easter. He has Risen, Praise the Lord, Praise the Lord.
We had our traditional Easter early morning church service and celebrated the Lord’s resurrection and then served breakfast. It takes a lot of work to pull this off and it is essentially a whole church effort. Each of the home groups were responsible to bring an item that would be enough to feed 300 people. Everyone chipped in and made it a great and inviting time for all guests.
The church went down to the local corner grocery store and pitched a tent and asked people if they wanted prayer for healing. We prayed for over 80 people and people claimed to be healed. It was really encouraging and a great blessing for the ones who received prayer. We prayed for a man who walked by on crutches. He was obviously touched by the Lord in such a great way that he went away carrying his crutches. YAHOO! Praise the Lord indeed. Lord, continue and soak us more with your presence and power to heal the sick, the blind, the lame and the deaf.
We also had the pleasure of baptizing 4 people into the Lord. I got the privilege to be able to experience this moment with them. We celebrated the baptism while the church was worshipping the Lord and celebrating these new births in Christ as they were washed from their old self and into their new identity in Christ. Please pray for these new converts.
Praise the Lord the girls continue to do well. They both participated in dance presentations for our Easter service. They both did a great job. We also found this snake in our yard and we killed it. They said that it was poisonous and we did not ask any more questions. J The girls were brave and held it after we killed it. Camilly will be turning 10 years old on April 18th. She is so excited and is in total party mode.
Thank you so much for all your prayers for Elba. Praise the Lord she is feeling much better and is running at 100%. We feel so privileged to have you in our lives praying and supporting us. Thank you so much. Please continue to pray for spiritual, physical, and emotional health for us. Thanks again.
Love and blessings, Steve, Elba, Camilly and Alyssa
