EGGstravaganza 4.23.11

This year Emmanuel hosted our 8th annual EGGstravaganza for our community. The event was scheduled for April 16, but due to weather warnings it was postponed by one week. We were reminded not to postpone anything in "speculation" of what "might" happen, but folks still came out the following week. Over 600 attended the EGGstravaganza and won a variety of prizes including, an XBox360 with Kinect. The children were divided into various age groups and all were fun to watch, but the highlight was the parent egg hunt! This is now an annual tradition and the highlight of the day.

Thanks to all of our church family who contributed candy, filled bags, donated prizes, setup tents, and volunteered time in preparation for this event. Thanks to those who setup tables & chairs, registered guests, gave directions, hid eggs, manned the prize rooms, presented the gospel, helped cleanup, and SO MUCH MORE!

It's exciting to see so many church members involved in serving and ministering to our community! What better time that Easter to reach people with the message of the Gospel!
