On April 21st, Trinity had their Easter Assembly. This is always a special time to sing praises to God and to hear the Easter story presented in a special way to the children by Dr. Chip Denton. Dr. Denton gave a very neat visual for the kids to see how broken they are without Jesus. He had a child come up and stand on a chair holding a raw egg. He then instructed the child to hold the egg up high and then drop it. It splattered all over the gym floor and the kids found this very funny. He then told that same child to pick up the egg and put it back together. Of course the child did not do it nor could he. Dr. Denton explained that we are very sinful and broken and that is why we need Jesus. Only he can put us back together and make us right before God. He also illustrated with another egg being broken on the floor and told the children this is Jesus broken on our behalf. That he took our punishment we deserved and our brokenness to the cross so our sins could be forgiven. But, the wonderful news is that God can put the "egg" back together and Jesus rose on the 3rd day. Thank you God for loving us so much that you gave your one and only son for us that we may have eternal life!

The TK - 1st graders presented flowers to the seniors and the seniors arranged them on the wooden cross. The cross is then carried out of the gym at the end of the service and put in front of the school.
He Is Risen!!! He Is Risen Indeed!!!
