Dear Friends

Two weeks to go to Easter.
Not the same buzz in the air as the last two weeks before Christmas..

I remember someone giving a talk on liturgy when I was in the seminary.
The speaker - at the old Corpus Christi Seminary in Melbourne -
said that we when get as excited about Easter
as we do about a football final,
we will have arrived!

The speaker lamented he'd never seen a church with an Easter banner
outside the front door.
He'd often seen Christmas decorations.
But nothing for Easter

Not just churches, but homes, classrooms....
can we put something up for Easter
to show it's the most important day of the year for a Christian?

Having said that, it's Winter time in Australia
and all football codes are back in action
...including the AFL which started again last night

Go Lions!   (... they sure need a resurrection...!)

My  Bible Plan for today is to follow the Sunday readings for the Sixth Sunday of Lent
Please join me in using this menu for nourishment

Thank you for a prayer

God bless!
