To all of my brothers and sisters here (those who post and those who spare themselves the pain and merely watch the rest of us skewer ourselves and one another), regardless of how the label outside your temple describes your personal faith, I wish you a blessed and joyful Pascha and offer my unworthy prayers for the intentions of all of you. May each of you, your families, and your friends, be blessed with health, peace, and sufficient prosperity to be free of want, and may the Lord assist you to have continued faith and allow us to learn of, care about, and appreciate one another in ways and to an extent that, some day, in our lifetimes or those of our children, a day will come when we can speak of "our" Church - and the collective form will be more than an a symbolic expression of prayerful hope. And, too, may the Easter bunny be good to you  May God grant each of you many years, Neil

Just wanted to wish all of you a Blessed Easter and Paschal Season!
May He who Rose from the dead and raised us to life grant that we grow in His Life. May we be washed clean, seek out the light, hear the Word, and remain in communion with Him and with each other in Him.
Happy Easter!
Looking forward to the big milk chocolate Easter Bunny after the Vigil,
Steve

Joyful and Blessed Pascha!
I am especially joyful because two dear friends of mine, a mother and daughter, are being received into the Church tonight. And they call me their Godmother! unworthy but still blessed,
Tammy
