Christ is gone. Between Good Friday and Easter Saturday. All is still.

So at daughter's church they take the opportunity to give the church a jolly good clean and eat hot cross buns.

Just got back from rehearsal to be received into the church at tonight's Vigil. Feeling very excited and a little nervous but everyone there was very welcoming and the Priest explained everything very clearly. Looking forward to tonight.

Sunseeker, I'll be praying with you at the vigil at my church. Welcome and blessings.

PS what name did you choose in the end?

Teresa, after St. Teresa of Avila. She seemed like a very spirited person and if she were alive today I think she would be someone I could get along with!

A great mystic. A lovely choice. smile

And a doctor of the church too.

Sunseeker I was privileged to read our our Easter Sunday morning Mass this morning and, as expected, one of the intercessions was for all those received into the Church this Easter so a prayer for you went from my heart. Welcome and blessings from me too! flowers
