Wanna know the where the best event for kids is happening this Easter? — At Southbrook Community Church! One of our staff made the crazy suggestion one day that we ought to drop eggs from a hot air balloon on Easter since no one has ever done that (not usually a good enough reason by itself, but this was, after all, a “Blue Sky/No idea is a Dumb Idea” meeting). Everyone just sat there in silence, chewing on what they’d just heard. But before anyone could object I blurted out, “I love it!” And the rest was history.
So here’s how it’s gonna go down (weather permitting – And, 2 days out it sure looks like the weather is going to “permit.”). Bracelets will be handed out to kids in our “Cove” children’s center and in the main worship building as folks exit each service (kids must have a bracelet to participate – otherwise it would be a madhouse). Everyone will then make their way to the Southbrook Soccer field (It will be pretty obvious as a ginormous hot air balloon will be hovering over it) and further instructions will be given there.
Pretty cool, huh?
So use this wonderful opportunity to invite everyone you know who needs to hear the great news of the real Easter message and pray that God moves in mighty ways!
