Celebrating Easter Early AND Late

This year, the sunrise will be about 12 hours early for us.  We'll be celebrating the day that Jesus rose from the dead, conquering death and hell and sin, while traveling from Beijing to Guangzhou, China.  We're also praying that another resurrection will begin a day later, when we meet Zhong Xi Di and welcome her into our family.  We will give her a new name, much like Jesus gave Simon and Saul new names.  We're praying that bringing Xi Di into our family will result in a new, spiritual birth, and we will name her based on that hope: Karis Joy.

Jesus changed the world on that first Easter.  And he still is...
