As in the past several years, NHCC sponsored a community Easter egg hunt prior to worship.
Here Ken welcomes the community. Look carefully and you can spot some
"hidden" eggs.
|
|
Some were eager to find as many as possible while others examined the eggs.
|
|

Some of the eggs were better hidden than others.
|
|
A welcome innovation on this overcast, slightly raw day was hot coffee for
the adults.
|
|
The
worship service included all the usual elements. Here Ken welcomes the
crowd.
|
|
And
here Tony reads one of the Scripture passages.
|
|
There were Easter hymns.
|
|
As always at NHCC, Easter worship included Holy Communion. Here Ken
blesses the bread.
|
|
Here the fruit of the vine is served to the congregation. (We use grape
juice so all may participate, and gluten-free bread is always available.)
|
|
Music is always an important part of Easter worship, as indeed of almost all
our worship services. The choir was accompanied by trumpets as well as our
organ.
|
|
The
delightful trumpet soloists, Ross Hill and Christine Fawson, were
back. They have played at the last few NHCC Easter servicese.
|
|
After worship, we had refreshments and conversation in the Parlor. The
cake went fast!
|
|
Some people were still checking out the contents of the eggs, but we can see
this fellow hadn't neglected the cake.
|
|
There was time for conversation, but some people were still interested in
the food..
