Resurrection (94/365)

~*~*~


“Our Lord has written the promise of resurrection, not in books alone, but in every leaf in springtime.”
~ Martin Luther

TIME: 8:00 AM
PLACE: Church
SUBJECT: Resurrection

My church is what might be called a multi-media church. Displays in the atrium are often graphic and meaningful. This cross, bearing the nails that held the written sins of Good Friday service attendees, was raised to the top of the atrium today - the sins taken away.

~ Bill Maher

TIME: 9:30 AM
PLACE: Church
SUBJECT: Tulip

Today started early for me. I went to the church to help out with the Easter display in our atrium. It included TONS of spring flowers, including these beautiful tulips. I'll admit, my volunteering was somewhat selfish. I wanted to be one of the first to enjoy these flowers.
