Egg-cellent fun at Saint John lutheran Church Blue skies, warm sunshine, and plenty of Easter spirit brought families together for Saint John Lutheran Church’s annual Children’s Easter Celebration in Bellmore on April 19. The festive morning featured a hearty breakfast with the Easter Bunny, kids in their holiday best, and a lively egg hunt across the church grounds — a joyful tradition that continues to unite the community each spring. Above, Keith, William, 18 months, and Christina Leone met the Easter Bunny at the celebration. Ellie Young, 5, showed off a basket full of eggs. More photos, Page 10.
