This earthen vessel of fragile faith would very much like to participate in your busy Easter program. Perhaps I can read the blog posts from my perch over the sea!

Our church usually offers devonshire tea (and talk) to visitors and locals at that time. I think after all that a game of cricket in the backyard will be in order for Easter Monday.
