this song sorta sums today up:

haven't been to church for many years, but this song popped into my head earlier this evening and made me feel a bit celebratory...

People don't come back from the dead, but it's nice to mark the coming of Spring

However, the flowers will be pretty in church. Choir singing DD1(agnostic as she declines to offended her atheist mother or her CofE Father and best friend). She just loves singing, but also turns out of respect for the choir master, the congregation and isn't sure whether believing in
God really matters. Since no one chases her to get confirm, I suspect the vicar has come to much the same conclusion.

DD2(13) will stay in bed.

The only thing we all agree on is the importance of chocolate.

Christ is risen! Alleluia! :)
Went to Vigil Mass AND had chocolate.

I don't do the zombie thing either, but Easter is a wonderful time of new life, growing sun, birth, fertility, not to mention the bunnies and lots of chocolate eggs. Happy Easter.

Christ is Risen!

Alleluia!

Six services done and two more to go then eat my own weight in chocolate.

My family are very religious but don't give the children chocolate or eggs. They consider that a pagan practice with no basis in the bible.

Christ is Risen! Alleluia!

Just back from a beautiful and profound Easter vigil service, starting outside in the dawn with the birds singing, and followed by breakfast and a glass of Wine (hic!). Will have some chocolate later.

He is risen indeed! Alleluia!

niminy loving the wine for breakfast! I had hot cross buns with our little church community after a sunrise service decorating a cross. beautiful moments.

Here's my offering!

That sounds like a lovely service, MadHair.

Happy Easter everyone.

Have had a great day - wonderful church service, family time and some peace and quiet too. How great is the God we adore.

Greatest day in history, death is beaten,we have been set free,celebrate, Jesus is alive! Fantastic singing this at church this morning and thought provoking service tonight about how it would be an idea to celebrate Easter more than Christmas. I feel thoroughly blessed.
