Hey people, here are some really awesome FREE things to do this week in Memphis.
(1) The cherry blossoms are going crazy, in full swing right now and FREE to be seen on Cherry Rd. between Southern and Park Ave.
(2) Derek Webb and Sandra McCracken are playing a FREE Easter-and-Resurrection themed concert, free at Levitt Shell in Overton Park. Bring a picnic, chairs, blankets, but leave yer shots of grape juice at home. Thanks to our friends at the not-so Independent Presbyterian Church for forking it over for that. If it rains, the concert will move indoors to Independent Pres. If our family goes, we may try to park in the zoo, coming in from the north (N. Parkway down Maclean) to see if that helps us beat traffic. HE IS RISEN.
(3) Most importantly, GAAWP’s Mitchell Moore is cooking up a sermon at the Lenten Lunch at 2pc. Click here for more info, including the menu. Please note that Mitchell is not cooking food, although he may bring some home-grown boiled eggs to the party.
(4) Sunrise service at Botanic Gardens in Memphis on Cherry Rd. at 6:30 AM. It’s very, very early in the morning. But those cherry trees look almost resurrection grade that time of the morning, with the first light of dawn rushing past Clark Tower and reminding us that the Morning to End All Night is coming, and has already broken in…
Plus if you live in Memphis, The zoo is free one day per week.
Don’t forget all of the Spirit of Memphis activities next weekend!!
