Paul Harvey told the story. Way back in elder Bush’s administration, his vice president, Dan Quayle, was out on the campaign trail, in Champaign-Urbana, Illinois. He was stumping for an Illinois
congressman, Rep. Lynn Martin. Organizers of the political rally got schoolchildren excused from school for the parade—asked the youngsters to wave and cheer when the motorcade came by.
And they did. They did indeed wave and cheer. The remarkable thing was that the first motorcade to come by was a funeral!
This is a remarkable month for Liberty United Methodist Church! We can have a parade. Easter is
always a celebration of life and hope! We can wave and cheer the death of death, for us all!
But there is more! The Sunday after Easter will be remarkable for the unveiling of the pictures of our Lightburne campus. I hope you have, or soon will, have attended one of our informational meetings provided by the building committee. These are designed for all who have questions. Please, please take the time to attend!
