With freezing temperatures all week and snow/hail/sleet threatening for days, I have to say we were a wee bit apprehensive about the Easter Egg Hunt our church kid's ministry had planned for this morning. But with 600 mini eggs bought, 250 children and parents signed up, 50 'hunt packs' ready to go, 12
of our small group guiltily roped in to help willing volunteers donning the City Church t-shirt and prepared to stand in one spot for an hour to be 'found', and two cars overflowing with goodies in our Car Boot Cafe, we were holding this hunt whatever the weather.
The aim? To be the first team to hit all 12 of our mapped points, collect a mini egg at each, remember to take note of the twelve letters, get back to the start, and work out the Easter phrase.
Simple.
Or so we thought, until the first team back consisted of one Russian, one Sri Lankan and two children under 8. And so a grand 'Speed' prize was created as well as a 'Phrase' prize, while all subsequent phrase-worker-outers received a Cadbury's Creme Egg.
And the phrase?? Let's see if you can work it out...
