The snow was coming down very hard, there were several inch's of fresh, heavy wet snow on the roads, driving was slow and treacherous. Our mission team had discussed canceling the Palm Sunday/Easter celebration at Porcupine on the Indian Reservation. We all decided to go anyway with the Lords help and blessing.
The scenery was beautiful covered in a blanket of white snow.
It took us an extra hour to get there but thanks to God we all made it safely. We were thankful we did. There were approximately 45 in attendance who were blessed with the Easter message of Christs death and Resurrection.
We did not have individual palm branches this year but each were given a flower to put on the cross as a symbol that Christ conquered death for each of us. Just as the flower springs up anew from a seed we will blossom forever with Christ in eternity.
We used both palm branches and Easter Lillie's to adorn the alter.
This is the Alter of our home church as we attended the Palm Sunday service on Saturday evening at the 5:30 PM service. We had special guests that evening, about 20 of the Ambassadors for Christ.
