This is a special day for many folks. When I was a kid, Easter was the second most important Holiday of the year. Women often wore new hats [Easter bonnets] to church. Men would never wear hats in church, or anywhere else indoors for that matter. My grandmother, who had little money, would take my family and my uncle's family to dinner [no wine], a noon meal as supper was the evening meal, at the Hotel Johnson. A once a year treat as it was so expensive. We would take Kodak pictures, black and white, as it was a big event in a small place. Hope you find something good and enjoyable today. Daryl

Memories of holidays and family are true Treasures, something special that rust and moths cannot take away.

Wishing a blessed and joyous Easter to everyone celebrating the gift of salvation from our Lord.

And a prayer for the unbelievers that their eyes are open before it's too late.

Stan, I taught you were a Deacon, now you are a Cook ? Some years back I was a Usher in our Church.
But one year the 5:30 P.M. Mass was done away with, and so my Ushering days were over.
Happy Easter to all.

deacon: from the Greek word diákonos meaning "servant" or "minister."

Our deacons have traditionally cooked and served a bountiful breakfast to worshippers attending the sunrise service on Easter morning. We also serve , and minister to worshippers when we distribute The Lord's Supper, which we do at our later morning worship service, on the first Sunday of each month. And, as other needs in the congregation arise we try to meet them as well.

A day late but the sentiment is the same, He is RISEN INDEED!!!

"And because I know who holds the future, life is worth the living just because He lives"

Acknowledging the day (and Passover), as done by the Founders and previous Presidents, is not an endorsement, of which Christianity has no need. God is infinitely larger than nations and governments.

Roger Sherman, Congregationalist of Connecticut, was the only Founding Father to sign The Association of 1774, the Declaration of Independence (he was one of the 5 Drafting Committee members), the Articles of Confederation, and the Constitution

Sad will be the day when the American people forget their traditions and their history, and no longer remember that the country they love, the institutions they cherish, and the freedom they hope to preserve, were born from the throes of armed resistance to tyranny, and nursed in the rugged arms of fearless men.
