On Easter Morning, I had a lot of energy as I was so full of Joy when I woke up! You all have heard about the beautiful Mahatthai Park that I go to most mornings in previous posts. As a church we met at this park at 5:30am for a Sunrise Service. At first we set everything up in the grass. But, we were told by the workers of the park that we were not allowed to place our stands and chairs on the grass. So, we moved our sunrise service to the basketball courts (as shown in the pictures above). The Sunrise was beautiful!! We enjoyed some worship together, praising God for His many characteristics shown in the event of His Resurrection (including-All Powerful, Conqueror of Death, Amazing Love)and thanking Him for the blessing and gift He has given us for eternity. **(Don't miss the videos of a couple of the worship songs at the bottom of this post)
We also spent time in prayer and some of the pastors gave a short sermon too. Then we had a fellowship with conversation, while eating breakfast foods and playing sports together! After this... I realized how exhausted I was and went home for a nap (a necessary one too!) before Easter Service at 10:30am =)
Together we can praise God for the people that came to the services and asked questions about God. One 19 year old boy in particular asked a friend of mine (in Thai), "Did Jesus really do that for us? Is this true?" My friend shared with me that he and this boy had an in depth conversation. This boy seems eager to know the truth and eager to know God personally. Will you pray with us for this boy to come to know Jesus as His personal Savior?
Thanks, Krystle, for sharing that video with us! Wow. I felt like I was right there visiting with everyone again as you walked around. Thanks for that gift.
ReplyDeleteI am also so grateful for God's work in the church bringing new people to hear about what Jesus did!! Wow. I will pray for that guy.
I hope your trip North was awesome and I hear about it soon!
