lamb this old church sits on here you go why don't we ever see him in church I don't really know I heard he used to

come when he was little his grandmother would bring him I need an O now and a w if you can find it so why doesn't he

[Music]

[Music] mirror

[Music] tomorrow's the big day huh not as big as

it be if folks didn't spend the day in church instead of outside more of my age right well see ya

is that supposed to be I don't know I panic oh let me handle this and would you like the Morning Report

sir oh let me guess the egg production is up I said I won't be dead I'd say we

have eggs of Plenty well that depends on how you learn things is the egg cake half full or half empty well then the

workers are happy uh though a little bit tired satisfying fatigue of productivity and

there will be a beautiful service at St March tomorrow you'd think so wouldn't you all in all this should be a glorious

Easter so um Mr nether don't you have chickens to

10. may I ask you a question no

foreign

what I wanted to ask you was well everything is going so well so couldn't

we uh close up shop just for Easter what close-up shop do you know what that

would mean you know when my grandmother started this Factory oh no here comes

the speech again 112 years ago yeah I know sir 113.

who's making Easter before you were born

113 years ago with one chicken and a coop

my grandma started dying eggs for the local girl scout troop

she started making money and that's her business group she got more hens and

colors and she knew just what to do

she built herself a factory to do what

she loved best she kept on dying Easter egg but then

you know yes sir I suppose it was bound to happen her age she could not hide

More Than A Hundred Years of Living and

then one day she died

but before she drifted off that day she

whispered in my ear those words I never shall forget I still

hear them loud and clear she said Abby she always used to call me

Abby Abby I taught you the family business and with my dying breath I say

you tell every single person

now at first this all confused me till then I realized

that as long as I make Easter eggs it's like she's still alive

she builds herself a factory to do what she loved best

and now keep making Easter eggs my one that no big West

tomorrow the world will see how I'm gonna make Easter even bigger and better

and Grandma will live forever just like she wanted so you see we can't just stop

the factory that would let Grandma down but Abby yeah Mr nether sir I am hello

there mind if we come in that'll be all now get back to work but I don't work here oh well I'm not hiring either oh no

that's not why we're here we came too you're that church fella aren't you well

yes I guess I am so why are you here well sir I know your grandmother used to bring you to church she loved Easter so

much yes then you'll come no but you said I said yes my grandmother loved

Easter what's not to love with the eggs and the candy oh but Mr nezer we miss

you at the Easter Service if you ask me you've got enough people locked up already sitting in those pews when they

should be out buying more eggs I'm sorry look I know my grandma like that old

church but I have no idea why I need to make Easter bigger to keep her alive and that church is just in the way what and

that's why I'm working on this oh

is that one's supposed to be me because I'm not that fat sorry

tomorrow is my grandma's birthday and she has given me a job to do

well I've been saving all my money to make a Easter dream come true

[Music] but don't you just love it Easter land

what's that supposed to be oh you're really going to love this I'll make

Easter last all year long we'll have Easter egg hunts every day to please the

massive throng throng it means lots of people everyone will buy my eggs and

I'll give them more to munch built by my yummy chocolate bunnies for

breakfast dinner lunch Grandma will be proud of me for keeping her alive and

dear church was her most favorite place

[Music] she builds herself a factory to do what

she loved best and so I'm building the Easter land my

one and only Quest that's not what she meant you can't do

that of course I have to be able to talk the bunny Factory too you can't tear it on the church that land has been in my

family for Generations if you just came to the service you'd realize you gotta talk to him Uncle Ebenezer Easter is a

time when when I am interrupted by people

in me and save the orphans connection [Music]

building something great and folks will come from miles around in trains on

bikes just like my little plastic chairs

I don't care about your service or your windows or your glass I'm gonna build a

world a place where Easter is a blasting won't help me with my deed get

out of here and don't come back I'll go what a company

if that church was

I can't believe it oh man is it you canceled Easter that's Mr nezer and

he hasn't done anything yet what are we gonna do

well we just need to have hope [Music]

foreign

the church I laugh it's true but what's going to happen what about the orphanage

supposed to last forever oh of course it doesn't plastic last forever yeah but I

don't see the difference well it's kind of if anything sure is fun how's that inventing show is fun plastic plastic

Easter land 10 off with the gift shop oh well that's generous what do you think out you

the present oh a present for me oh you shouldn't have no not a present be present Easter

present here and now oh lovely let's go for a ride

another idea

oh what's this place listen

well if NASA really knew how his grandmother felt he wouldn't touch that old church I wouldn't no she sure loved

that old place did you know she paid for all those beautiful Windows herself I and the new

window we were going to unveil tomorrow she commissioned it just before she passed away she sure would have loved

everyone to see it now neza's Gonna Knock the whole thing down

dear this is a isn't an old sour nether's fault why I'd

like to take that old ghost girl and teach him a thing or two I'd leave his Easter basket into a pretty kettle of

fish I'd I'd I I guess he just needs to get out of that

factory and find out what Easter is really all about what a ninny and the

factory is what Easter's all about the eggs the baskets you don't get it do you

they're talking about the hope of Easter the hope of Easter changes everything if

you take it away you won't like what you get I'll get a lot more time for folks to buy eggs and that's what I'll get and

I'll get to build Easter land and keep my grandma alive forever [Music]

Mom Dad Edmond you're supposed to be asleep I know but I couldn't sleep and

well I've been thinking yes Mr Nazar isn't a bad man what a sweet

little boy no he just doesn't have something that we all have the thing

that lets us celebrate Easter all years long [Music]

how sick is he very sick I'm afraid well it is he gonna if nothing changes

this will be his last Easter oh when are the doctors going to tell its

parents [Music] what

is so calm oh [Music]

I'm ready to listen

be no hope but it isn't

God has made [Music]

definitely will never be the end

if you just believe

there is nothing to fear nothing happened

[Music]

and to give us hope he wrote he died for us to give us

and to give us hope [Music]

the hope of Easter is life Everlasting if you believe in who he is and what he

did for you if you believe of course we all have to live without

decisions the world will be a better place if that church was never built what oh oh that I'm afraid it's time to

see what this town would be like without the Hub of Easter welcome to Easter future

what did you say I said don't touch this church I know I told you to tear it down that

we'd all be better off without it I was wrong I know that now I thought

Easter was about eggs and Candy but it's more than that it's about Hope and the

hope that this life isn't all there is that dying isn't the end it's a new beginning if you believe

that's what my grandma was trying to tell me well that's what this church has been telling people since since before I

was born I've seen what life would be like without the hope I used to and believe
