Easter is such a wonderful celebration! What a chance to teach our kids the joy of our salvation!
We hit alot of groups during Easter time and wanted to share!
-New visitors/ community
We have the Easter Event with multiple services followed by a cookout/ blow ups/ activities for all ages/ fair food/ and of course a big egg hunt! We strategically place volunteers in shifts so they can enjoy the family event too. We have a under cover greeting team to seek out new families!
-Youth
Most youth play too cool to egg hunt but the kid inside is so desperate to hunt those eggs!
Black Light Egg Hunt is a fun idea for youth groups- rent a laser tag type place and hide black light eggs for round one. the rest of your time you can play regular laser tag or include 1 hidden egg.
-Family Connectivity
We use Easter as a time for family fun outside the church too! This year we will hide numerous "golden eggs" throughout the city and give clues through the web/ handouts on where the families can find the eggs. Inside the eggs is a mini scroll for the finders to sign and see who else has been there. There are also little cards inside that tell the family to present the card to whomever at the church to be entered for a bigger prize!
We're still in planning phases but if we go all out for this event we'll post the egg locations on geocacheing.com to open it up to the public and enables the use of a gps to help locate the eggs.
If you want more info as we plan, shoot me an e-mail!
love & all the best,
Ashley
