Seder Success



Last night, we celebrated Passover with Nick and Steph's clan! 

Does anyone else reading this think they can pull off an entire Passover meal/program with 7 kids 5 yrs and under?  Did you know that an authentic one, with all the frills, lasts close to 3 hours?

I didn't think so.

But, THEY can!  Ha!  And, with finesse...




We declared together, in many beautiful words, that Jesus became our Passover Lamb...


His body, broken for us...


His blood, represented here by the grape juice, poured out for us...to cover up and wash clean away ALL our mess-ups, our rebellion, our aloofness, our selfishness, and for our turning away from the Father who created us to know Him!


We ate homemade matzah bread, unleavened, like the Hebrews did at Passover...


And feasted on LAMB!  Thanks to Nick for driving 30 minutes away to purchase this beauty for us to enjoy!  And, for forking over all that cash...

Did you know that lamb isn't really the meat of choice for Thais?  Hence the sacrifice to buy it and enjoy every last bite. 

You know I did.

That's why my pants are fitting a wee bit too tight today...


How did you celebrate Passover, or "Holy Thursday" this year?  And, what are your plans for meditating on Jesus' death and (Praise GOD!) His Resurrection?  Feel free to comment below...
