Spring is such a beautiful season, and it
is the season for my favorite holiday: Easter. On this Fun (Good) Friday just
before Easter, we wanted to share a few ideas with y'all to help you celebrate
our risen Lord this weekend. Enjoy!
For Families
If you’re looking for a creative way to share
the Easter story with your kiddos, consider trying Resurrection Cookies this
year. Each ingredient in these yummy
cookies can be related to the story of Jesus’ death, burial, and
resurrection. They bake overnight (with
the oven off!) and are hollow in the morning-just like Jesus’ empty tomb! Click on the picture below for a link to the
full recipe. 
For Singles
If
you will be staying in Wake Forest this Easter instead of traveling to visit
family, why not celebrate with your Sisters who are also here? Invite two or three friends over for High Tea
on Easter Sunday and enjoy one another’s company. You don’t have to make a big fuss over it,
but be sure to have tea (sweet tea if it has warmed up enough or hot tea if the
temperature is still low . . . or both!) and a little snack food. Use the tea time to reminisce about the good
things that God has already done for you this year or over the past few
years. He is such a good Father!
For All of Us
Easter is such a time of joy; why not spend
extra time today singing to the Lord who rose from the dead? Sing as a family, sing during your “quiet
time,” sing in the car. Sing songs of
joy and praise. Be sure to pay attention
to the words that you sing and let the grace of our Savior wash over you. Maybe you’ll even find yourself dancing as
you celebrate who God is and all that He has done for us. Here are a few song ideas to get you started:
