Happy Easter to our family and friends from Mystery Island, Vanuatu in the South Pacific! I'm wishing you a Happy Easter a day before you actually celebrate Resurrection Sunday. That's because we're a full day ahead of home since crossing the International Date Line, so we're celebrating Easter today on the ship. Actually, we had "early" church last night with the Lord's Supper and will celebrate again tonight with our small group Bible study.
As far as the ship is concerned, there are signs of the Easter holiday here and there. In the atrium there is a display of edible handmade eggs. There is another display outside the Terrace restaurant and of course jelly beans on the dessert bar. I snapped a representative few to share here. I will add that the displays smell chocolate-y and delicious!

So there are plenty of rabbits, eggs and candy on board the ship today but we are thankful that we can celebrate the real meaning of Easter.
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. 1 Peter 1:3
