Easter Fun Day

This Saturday, City on a Hill Church is having it's largest event to date. We're hosting a FREE community Easter Fun Day from 1-4pm. Egg hunt, games, contests, moon bounces and food.

Someone questioned me about the egg hunt. Certainly there is a great deal of history we can all read about the origin of the pagan holiday celebrating the goddess "Eostre" and the theme of fertility that surrounds this pagan festival. There, of course, is as much non-Biblical history and festivities entertwined with Christmas as any other holiday the Church celebrates, e.g., Christmas trees, ornaments, stocking, etc.

For more detailed insight into the history of the holiday, take a look at this great article.

From a Christian perspective, our focus at Easter is on Jesus Christ, his resurrection and the victory and power that He offers to us as a gift. Our focus should be on the gift of eternal life. The eggs symbolize life - life that Jesus gives. And it's not just life, but life more abundant!

Please come on out and celebrate the life that Jesus offers with us! We'd love to see you!!
