Easter in Latin America

Easter Morning 2008 just before church

Hello Everyone,

One week ago we celebrated Easter. It was a wonderful time of celebration with our local congregation who celebrated a Sunday morning breakfast of eggs, rice and beans, bread and coffee. Here is our Pastor enjoying her meal.



After church, the Easter bunny visited the kids and brought them each a basket with some goodies. They enjoyed the sweets and the small gifts.




Over the weekend, we spent a few hours with our Methodist missionary friends. The kids colored eggs and had egg/spoon races.




It was lots of fun for them to celebrate in such an American way. At home we had a few egg hunts in the house with sweets and coins inside the eggs to add to the excitement of the search.

It has been another week without David as he has been in Panama working with a Maximum Mission team from California. He checks in regularly and everything is going well for the team and the leaders. This is Sunday and Shelley will leave in an hour to pick up David at the airport. We are planning on a nice evening together as a family. David will leave again on Thursday for Nicaragua to attend some Maximum Missions there. The district of Central Nicaragua has the goal of planting 23 new cell groups/churches in the month of April. WOW!!!




We hope you had a blessed Easter with your friends and family. Until next week,

The Webb Family
