Alleluia! Christ is risen! The Lord is risen indeed! Alleluia! A most happy Easter to all my Christian friends. Our services for Holy Week were wonderful and moving! It was a lot of work and worth every moment of it! The Altar Servers and Altar Guilds are to be commended on all their very hard work! Thank you! For now though I am off to eat some chocolate and put my feet up for a couple of days. Blessings on this holy season. Alleluia! Christ is risen! The Lord is risen indeed! Alleluia!
