Okay Folks, I'm going to ask another question ... and I'm truly searching for ways in which other Christians observe OUR holy-days.
How do you celebrate Easter? I expect everyone to give the obvious answer ... going to a church service. But I'm curious about beyond that service.
I wasn't raised in a Christian family so we did Easter Bunny stuff and occasionally went to church (rarely). We received pretty new dresses and shiny new shoes and it was lovely. It was also a time when the family gathered together for a spectacular meal.
While church services now have a significant meaning for me and worshipping the Father on Resurrection Sunday is wonderful, the remainder of the day looks pretty much the same as when I wasn't a Christian.
Soooooo ... I wanted to ask how others celebrate.
Thanks for taking time to respond.
Blessings, Francine
