Palm Sunday was a fun and busy day for the youth and children at First Presbyterian!
The morning began with the children’s choir singing with the adult choir. Later in the service, the children and some adults took part in the Palm Parade. After the service, children (infant through 5th grade) had a great time hunting Easter eggs throughout the church. Eggs were hidden in the Chapel, Choir Room, Children’s Library, a classroom and upstairs common room. All children were given a goodie bag to take home in addition to the “egg candy.”
Palm Sunday evening was the last meeting of the Youth Group for the school year and a celebration of the graduating seniors. After a pizza dinner provided by Greg and Deb Fritz, the Youth Group had their egg hunt. Eggs were hidden throughout the Sanctuary, Children’s Library, and the Choir Room. After the egg hunt, seniors put their handprints on the “handprint wall" in the room adjacent to the Youth Room. A goodie bag was given to each youth participant at the end of the evening.
