Easter is upon us. There are celebrations all over town. Churches are holding special services. And there are many egg hunts and other activities planned for children of all ages.

Thursday evening there will be a Maundy Thursday Communion Service at 6 pm at First United Methodist Church of Coushatta.

Many are having Easter events including Open Door Fellowship holding an Easter egg hunt on Saturday afternoon 4 to 6 pm. First Methodist Church‘s Easter Egg Hunt is Friday morning at 10 am followed by a hot dog lunch for the children. There are probably others, so check with your church for their activities.

Abbie Lane Retreat is offering a walking tour of four of their prayer gardens on Friday and Saturday. Guides will be available or you may take the tour on your own, stopping to meditate as you desire. Abbie Lane is located on US 71 about 10 minutes south of Coushatta.
