Alison Bolshoi and Lovie Abner arrived and arranged the Easter Garden with loving care, aided by Meg, Ellen, Nick and Will, plus Bella and Mariana.\u00a0 Myrna Bennett-Jackson arrived to help with the rocks and moss.\u00a0 Christina Bristol was busily arranging the flowers on the back tables (her first attempt at such large, beautiful arrangements!). Tim worked on the Narthex arrangement, and the Paschal Candle, and then finished up in the Assembly Hall. Gordon arranged a magnificent High Altar of white and yellow flowers that was an inspiration to us all.\u00a0 We were tired by the end of the day, but it was a good, healthy, and joyful tired. And the glory of Easter was revealed to all! \u00a0THANK YOU TO EVERYONE!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
