2012 Holy Week Photos
Each year Holy Week is a profound time of communal and individual reflection and celebration. It is in the dying to ourselves and rising to new life in Christ that we experience in Holy Week that we learn to walk with the Lord throughout the rest of the year. As you continue to pray through you and your family and friends' experience with the Lord this Holy Week, may these images serve as stones of remembrance of what the Lord has done and is continuing to in his people at Church of the Resurrection.

Sanctity of Life Testimony
Testimony from Mindy Popp
Resurrection's Sanctity of Life ministry recently participated in a county-wide initiative called "40 Days of Life." Mindy Popp and others from Resurrection took turns praying outside of a family planning clinic for 40 days. Mindy shared this story with the church on Easter Sunday as a testimony to God's faithfulness to all of his people, including his children who are still in their mother's wombs.

Easter Sunday 2011
As our church reached the Holy Week destination of Easter morning, I found my mind teeming with details. I hoped I could keep straight, my body stressed, my spirit unsure. I didn't feel tremendously Easter-ish.

Easter Vigil 2011
"This is the night, when you brought our fathers, the children of Israel, out of bondage in Egypt, and led them through the Red Sea on dry land.
This is the night when all who believe in Christ are delivered from the gloom of sin, and are restored to grace and holiness of life.
This is the night, when Christ broke the bonds of death and hell, and rose victorious from the grave.

Good Friday 2011
As a member of the music team at Church of the Resurrection, I am very aware of the fact that the perspective of a musician is different from that of a congregant. When I am worshiping from the stage, I experience a closeness to the altar, the cross, and the congregation. In particular, I feel the energy of the sanctuary around me in the faces of those in front of me.

Maundy Thursday 2011
As we walk through Christ's last week together each year, we are drawn in to the story of his suffering and sacrifice. There is so much to take in during that week as we worship together.
A few years ago I wrote "Passion Song" which recalls several of the major events during Holy Week. I was inspired to write it while reflecting on Jesus' earthly relationships.

In God's Kitchen: Easter Sunday
I have a new-found obsession with egg whites. I set about making these insanely yummy chocolate soufflé muffin cupcake things for Easter brunch, headed for my kitchen, and met my match. I had never separated eggs before, and the chocolatey awesomeness called for egg whites, separated out, and whipped up. There the whites sat, runny and pale and kinda gross, in the bottom of my mixing bowl. Not sure what would happen, I turned on my mixer and waded in.I have a new-found obsession with egg whites.
