Good Friday and Easter Services

We had a wonderful Easter celebration, with Good Friday services, a vigil on Saturday night with our cell group and then a glorious resurrection celebration on Sunday!  We also celebrated 2 years at Cristo Rey on Sunday.  Praise the Lord for how He continues to shine and pour His grace on us!

Maundy Thursday

We had a wonderful Maundy Thursday service at Cristo Rey. A full house with 92 in attendance.



We enjoyed a meal together and reflected upon the Lord's last supper with his disciples. Pastor Allen Smith shared God's word. After hearing of the last supper, we too celebrated the Lord's Supper to end our time together.

It was a great time of fellowship among the church family. Below is a photo of some of our church members.




And fellowship with visitors and new friends. Below is a photo of Hermes' boss and family. We were glad to welcome them to Cristo Rey.



The kids had been to camp with Twin Lakes in January. They were at our wedding in March. The wife told me seeing our community at the wedding peaked her interest to know even more about us. The kids were saying they want to come back on Sundays. Pray that the Lord would work in their lives and give Hermes and me the words and deeds to minister well to them.
