jonathanbarnett - He Is Risen!!!

A bunch of pictures today, have fun.

So hopefully the video for this week will work. It's a drime that we performed in Church on Sunday for Easter. The drime is entitled Please and the music by U2. It symbolizes the life of Christ. Starting with his baptism, performing miracles, to getting crucified and his glorious raising from the dead.

I hope you all had a great Easter, a fun church service and hopefully a good time with friends and family.

My week was pretty ordinary. Going to the drop in center and being with my kids, then playing some soccer with a bunch of guys on Thursday. Friday we had church in the morning then practice with the ministry team after it for the drime. Then Michael and I had a good lunch at a Chinese restaurant.

Saturday was an amazing day. We went to Mantanga Falls for our team day and met with the Swazi team to watch Marcus, my bro, and Erin get baptized. It was great getting to be there with Marcus when he got baptized, he's been talking about it since last semester and I'm glad that I was there to be a witness. We also had a good time of braiing and cliff jumping.

Marcus Renewed In The Spirit

I've never been cliff jumping before, and I found out just how scared of heights I really am. But I faced my fear by doing the 40ish foot jump, only being able to get up there and do it with the help of Marcus. After struggling up the cliff and almost falling, only to be held up by Marcus I made it to the top where my legs were shaking, and my mouth was completely dry. I haven't been that freaked out in a long time. But getting my mind calm and then shutting if off, I watched the waterfall in front of me and went for it. It was an amazing rush and so glad that I did it afterwards. Marcus and Ben had to take it to the next level and did the 70-foot jump. It was a great time and I even had nightmares of jumping from heights that night. No one was hurt and it was a great time of fellowship.

Then Saturday night we had our Easter feast of homemade enchiladas thanks to Cassie who even made the tortillas. It was great.

Today we had church, which was a good service, and went out for lunch. Not knowing what would be open we walked around in the rain and eventually settled on KFC, since it was the only place open…Yeah it's was good. I've never had KFC for Easter but it was a good unique experience. The rest of the rainy day was spent watching movies and sleeping.

Well I hope everyone had a great Easter, tell me what you did and how it went and everything. God bless.

And if you could be praying for me this coming week. I feel some big spiritual attack coming up. I appreciate it
