EASTER SUNDAY

A very happy Easter to everyone who reads my blog.  Brian and I went with Beverly and family to our Anglican Church this morning for an Easter Sunday service.  The Ministser by the name of Father Matthew gives the most interesting sermons and conducts the whole service in such a wonderful manner it makes one feel so good. The morning was fairly long as a beautiful little girl was being Baptised.  It so lovely to see her in the traditional long gown and Father Matthew involved all the young children in the congreation to be part of the service.  What was especially beautiful was that he had the little brother of the baby help him put the holy water onto her little head. He also then had the candle lit and asked her brother to hold it for him.  What a wonderful person to be able to hold everyone in this large Cathedral in the palm of his hand. He truly is a Man of God.

Managed to do 14 pages of scrapbooking yesterday and today we received lovely Easter eggs (not good for the waist line), we are also going up to Bevelry and Ivan later today to have a lovely Turkey dinner.  Matthew absolutely loves the stuffing that Ivan makes for the turkey so we know for sure we will all have a lovely time.

Ian and Wendy are away on a holiday in the beautiful mountains of the Drakensburg and we will keep him and his family in our prayers today for their safe return in a weeks time.

What a lovely post, Dorothy! Congratulations on achieving your scrapbooking pages ~ Woo Hoo! I also enJOYed reading about your Church experiences ... I do believe that you and Brian will find a church which will feel like rejoining family, just like the one you used to belong to in Diamond Creek.
