And then&#8230;. then He rose from the grave. Easter brings us into eternal life. Easter brings us into an eternal relationship with God. God&#8217;s adoption process was completed when the veil was torn and Jesus rose.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Easter is about relationships. Relationships with God. It&#8217;s about family- being adopted into the family of God. But it&#8217;s also a time for celebrating the earthly families that God has given us. Like the egg which nurtured a chick, and the Savior who rose from the dead, Easter is about life.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">And so, about 400 people gathered at PUMC to celebrate life and family. Despite the misty rain, neighbors filled our parking lot, Fellowship Hall, Sanctuary, and lawn. It was a party for the community.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #800000;\">Lunch!<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>What better way to start a family event then to break bread (or hot dog rolls)? The morning started in the Fellowship Hall where everyone got a chance to decorate their &#8220;Egg Collection Bags&#8221;&#8230; and to get some lunch. Lots of hot dogs were dished out.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style>\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 50%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-20834 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-medium'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" src=\"https:\/\/pitmanumc.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Egg19-Lunch-Kate-_IMG_1867-300x225.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pitmanumc.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Egg19-Lunch-Kate-_IMG_1867-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/pitmanumc.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Egg19-Lunch-Kate-_IMG_1867.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" src=\"https:\/\/pitmanumc.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Egg19-Lunch-_IMG_1866-300x225.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pitmanumc.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Egg19-Lunch-_IMG_1866-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/pitmanumc.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Egg19-Lunch-_IMG_1866.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #800000;\">Magic!<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>After lunch, we moved into the Sanctuary to visit with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.magicbyed.net\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Magic by Ed<\/span><\/a>. Nothing is bigger than Easter and the Resurrection, but Magic by Ed got us thinking and kept us entertained.<\/p>\n<p>Usually, when you see a magician, you&#8217;re left scratching your head wondering &#8220;How&#8217;d he do that???&#8221; But on this Egg Hunt Saturday, Ed showed us how to do some tricks! He opened by sharing his &#8220;3 Ps&#8221; about learning how to be a magician:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Practice-<\/span><\/strong> Learn the trick and then practice it over and over.<\/li>\n<li><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Patience<\/span><\/strong>&#8211; It&#8217;s not going to work very well at first. You&#8217;re going to mess it up. But, keep trying.<\/li>\n<li><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Performance<\/span><\/strong>&#8211; &#8220;Magic&#8221; is about illusion and deception. Learn how to present the trick while inviting the audience to focus their attention elsewhere.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&#8220;Magic by Ed&#8221; is very good at the &#8220;3 Ps&#8221;. He showed us several tricks and then followed each one by explaining how he did it. Then he turned a volunteer into a magician as they did it themselves. Numbers were guessed, cards were identified, and a baggie did the limbo!<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style>\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 50%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-2' class='gallery galleryid-20834 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-medium'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" src=\"https:\/\/pitmanumc.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Egg19-Magic-_IMG_1880-300x225.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pitmanumc.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Egg19-Magic-_IMG_1880-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/pitmanumc.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Egg19-Magic-_IMG_1880.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" src=\"https:\/\/pitmanumc.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Egg19-Magic-_IMG_1884-300x225.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pitmanumc.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Egg19-Magic-_IMG_1884-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/pitmanumc.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Egg19-Magic-_IMG_1884.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" src=\"https:\/\/pitmanumc.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Egg19-Magic-_IMG_1892-300x225.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pitmanumc.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Egg19-Magic-_IMG_1892-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/pitmanumc.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Egg19-Magic-_IMG_1892.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" src=\"https:\/\/pitmanumc.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Egg19-Magic-_IMG_1900-300x225.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pitmanumc.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Egg19-Magic-_IMG_1900-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/pitmanumc.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Egg19-Magic-_IMG_1900.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #800000;\">The Hunt is On!<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>And then, the moment we all wated for: Hunting for eggs!
