Easter Sunday was a beautiful day. We went to our typical 7:00 am Mass at Immaculate Cathedral. Typically the Bishop Crowley says this Mass. The church was decorated beautifully with yellow bunting and ribbons. You can see the heads of some of John's Weaver Bird students in the foreground of the picture.
We invited Joe and Nancy, our compound neighbours over for brunch after Mass. I tried making my mother's egg casserole. Things just taste different here. It was OK, but we sure missed the Velveeta! However, the fruit salad accompaniment was something we couldn't have had in the States: fresh mango, banana, pineapple, and cashews.
That evening the Maryknoll Lay Missioners gathered at Kathy's house for an Easter feast. We invited several other guests: Terry, an Australian lay missioner, Jacinta, a Dutch lay missioner, and Lilly and her husband, Swedish lay missioners. We had a great evening with plenty of good food, great companions and conversation.
May you all have a blessed Easter season.
