Yesterday we had a wonderful Palm Sunday Service. The service has such a rich tradition of processing into the church with palms and singing hymns. Then of course there is the drama of the passion. Everyone takes a part. I was Judas...again. We had twenty good souls at the service and Father Walker was our priest. We also had a new family visit our church and I think they felt at home with us. Our congregation does a good job of welcoming new people to the church. I know every church says that but I honestly believe we do. I have visited churches that were standoffish (probably not a word) and I know how awkward that feels. I hope we are never like that.
Palm Sunday is the beginning of Holy Week. Today I went to St. Paul's Cathedral for the Chrism Mass. I will say more about it tomorrow. Its bedtime and before I go to bed I need to meditate.
Good night and pleasant dreams,
Deacon Fred
