Our Church had a Good Friday Service and every year after the service they take an approximately 2 mile walk up a mountain. At the top of the mountain is a cross. The view covers the whole North Cowichan Valley. Along the way they celebrate the Easter story. C and M begged to go. Dad was a little worried about the walk for M because it is a straight up the mountain hike, but C and M were troopers. On the way down Pastor Mark decided to take a short cut that really was not a short cut. The short cut became a long cut through bushes and thorns. The kids thought that it was the greatest thing to be lost. M just loves Pastor Mark so he did not loose any points in her book. What an awesome way to celebrate Good Friday.
Yes, it all began with these simple words, and it has ended up an adventure of a lifetime.
