I started out Easter morning playing the appropriate pieces from Handel's Messiah as loud as I could while getting ready for church. "I know that my redemmer lives", "Worthy is the lamb", "Hallelujah" and "The Trumpet shall sound"! A good way to start celebrating the resurrection.
We had breakfast and then a great service together at the Riga 1 corps. It was not a traditional meeting, instead it was a family outreach Sunday. Stuart and Cei and their newly formed team (Marika, Linda and their girls) did the whole meeting. It was a lot of fun and the gospel message was clear. Here are a few pictures to show you the team. http://picasaweb.google.com/evieinlatvia/Easter07
The Smiths came over for dinner later. This was the last year for this tradition, unless we can figure out how I get to the UK next year or they come to the US. We ate a lot of course and ended up as usual, watching a movie with Sian! All in all - a very nice day. And Monday was an official holiday so I got an extra day off - no complaints from me. Back to training and work today.
