Happy Easter

April 5, 2012 ·

I hope y’all have a wonderful Easter weekend.

May we carry His name above all names.

And if you live in the San Antonio area and are looking for a place to worship on Sunday morning, my church is having an amazing outdoor service at 10 a.m. Everyone is welcome!

    hahaha Sorry, I just pictured all of your readers showing up on the hill for Easter service. People going around asking “have you seen Big Mama, Mel?” OK so, maybe it’s only funny to me.

    Have a Blessed Easter!

      if I was about 100 miles closer, I would be there.
      Or we could all show up with signs like they do at airports.

    I love that your church is meeting outside and inviting the community. Happy Easter! Jesus rocks!

    By the way, are your friends and family okay after the tornadoes in Dallas?

    I practically live next door to the new RCCC on Lookout Rd. My 3 year old has enjoyed watching them build on the property and put up the new sign. We have been looking for a church home since moving back to SA in December and when I realized the old Verizon was going to be a church I was thrilled. We can walk to service! Hope to see you Sunday! Happy Easter!

    I found your blog through Holly Mathis and realized you are in the SA area. I live right outside of SA and go to church on the other side of Lookout Road at Believers Fellowship. Small world. Its so fun to find other bloggers that live near me and hope to meet some of them someday. Glad you had a wonderful Easter…he has risen indeed!

Who is Melanie?

Melanie ShankleMy name is Melanie and, in some strange twist of fate, I’m also known as Big Mama because I started this blog in July of 2006 when my daughter, Caroline, was not quite three years old and I was in the process of convincing her that BIG girls use the potty and BIG girls don’t have pacifiers, thus she thought BIG was the highest compliment in the land and began referring to me as BIG MAMA.Read More
