 Easter Day

 

 

Easter Day saw Kenilworth greeted with a covering of snow on 23rd March 2008, but the snow quickly melted away in time for our Easter celebrations. 

 
  A white Easter! Easter Snow  
 

Children of all ages enjoyed an Easter Egg Hunt around the churchyard, searching for pieces of a picture puzzle and the message 'The Lord is risen, Hallelujah' with mini Easter eggs as their prize! 

 
  Sue & Mark organised the egg hunt On the trail for clues Quick...!  
 

Afterwards, around 500 people packed themselves into a very full church to sing and shout alleluia's as we celebrated Jesus' resurrection.

 
  Under 5s get rolling  
 

There was more fun after the service with traditional egg rolling down the slopes of the Abbey Fields with Easter Egg prizes for those who rolled their boiled eggs the furthest. 

 
  Ready steady.. Get your eggs ready!  
  Ready, eggy go! Teenage fun!  
  Checking to see who's egg won! Not too old to have a go!  
  These activities are a lot of fun but also remind us of Jesus' friends searching for his body and of the stone being rolled away from his tomb.
