On Thursday, a school administrator told the students that after they turned in a survey, they were free to begin their “long weekend”. 

On Thursday, Clergy and church servants were getting ready for a special service, the second of Holy Week as well as thinking towards Good Friday and the Easter service.

Church servants have been arranging flowers, creating extra bulletins, and in many cases, putting up with their frenetic pastors who kept saying “I’m working on it”, while the emails were filled with special sales from the various retailers expecting a long weekend of business.

Clergy have been planning multiple services and events trying to present the greatest story ever told in new and captivating ways. 

And for some, it was just a long weekend off, but we must remember Jesus died for them as well. His sacrifice is for all to know that God is alive and active in our lives for Jesus is risen and that makes all the difference.

Peace,

Pastor Bill
