We had a great Easter this year - a little chilly, but no snow on the ground like last year! We are really enjoying our new rector, Mother Joy Rose. As we go through her first year with us she's doing a wonderful job of melding her traditions with the traditions of our very old church, St. Paul's (affectionately known as 'Piney Parish'). This year for Maundy Thursday, we had a chocolate seder, which was enjoyed by all with the exception of Chase and me since he was really ill with an earache and fever. Easter morning was bright and sunny. After the service, the Rite 13 class, including Reid, continued the tradition of hiding eggs for the younger guys throughout the cemetery that surrounds our church. The first year we were there, I thought that tradition was a little odd, but now I see how fitting it is, the symbolism of new life among the graves - isn't that what Easter is all about?
