He is risen indeed. Alleluia!

 I wish you all a very happy and blessed Easter.

      Thanks, Ray. I hope yours was happy too and that your voice has now recovered from all the singing.

    He is risen indeed. Alleluia! Off shortly to celebrate in St. Clement's, Prague this morning & in 'The Upper Room', Brno this evening.

      I hope both services went well, Ricky. I do love the thought of celebrating the Resurrection in the Upper Room. :)

      They went very well indeed, Perpetua! Both services included a baptism, the first time I've baptised in two different cities on the same day!

    Wishing you a perfect Easter Sunday Perpetua. A glance at my watch tells me you are mid-morning right now - probably singing some of the hymns I sang today. Lovely to see the Arena chapel picture - the highlight of our trip to Italy in 2014. I never tire of those Giotto paintings.

      Actually, because of visitors I went to church in the evening, Patricia, after a lovely family Easter lunch.
      I remember you posting about your visit to the Arena chapel. Padua is one of the places I would love to visit.

    We enjoyed a lovely Easter, thank you. I hope that you did as well. You find the most beautiful pieces of art to share, Perpetua. I really enjoy them, and the gorgeous accompaniment. Blessings to you.

      I did indeed, Debra. It was great to have our son and youngest grandson with us.
      I really enjoy looking for appropriate images and music and Giotto is an particular favourite of mine.
