He is risen!

We have had a huge, but amazing weekend. One of the highlights was our youth leading a 'Living Stations of the Cross' on Good Friday - we have an incredible bunch of young people who blessed us with a very moving reflection on the passion of our Lord.

Here's a couple of photos:









Our Easter Sunday celebration of the resurrection saw 8 baptisms and 11 adult confirmations, with about 140 attending worship on the day. It was chaotic to say the least, but what a joyful occasion. Photos are coming!

In between Good Friday and Easter Sunday I was privileged to preside at the blessing of the marriage of one of our Burundian couples - what an experience! Here's a photo of the groom showing the world he is committing himself to his dear bride with the giving of the ring.

As exhausted as we all are today, it's been the greatest joy to be part of such an amazing series of celebrations.

He is risen! Kristu amemefufuka!
