LYNDONVILLE – The Lyndonville United Methodist Church continued its annual Easter tradition by holding its Easter Egg Hunt at the Lyndonville Central School on Saturday.

At 11 a.m. sharp, the doors swung open in both high school gymnasiums to allow young children to hunt for Easter Eggs and other surprises.

The congregation of the United Methodist Church and multiple volunteers spent hours filling the eggs with Easter treats and then hiding the eggs amongst obstacles and barriers which created unique hiding spots for the eggs.

The annual tradition saw over 150 children of all ages participate in this fun-filled event. The tradition started over 20 years ago and sees larger crowds every year.

As in years past, the church worked in collaboration with the Lyndonville Lions Club who supplied complimentary grilled hot dogs and refreshments to all attendees. The guest of honor, the Easter Bunny, again made a special early Easter stop at the event.

Many took the opportunity to get a photo with the Easter Bunny who is sure to be very busy this Sunday.

The United Methodist Church Congregation and The Lyndonville Lions Club would like to wish all a very joyous Easter. It is the comfort afforded to us and expressed in 1 Corinthians 6:14: “And God raised the Lord and will also raise us up by his power” that brings comfort to all during this holiest time.

May God continue to bless everyone and this great nation we live in.

The children wait outside the gym for the doors to open for the egg hunt.
