I’m not sure when it happened. I can’t pinpoint the exact time, but I haven’t been to church in quite a while. I’m so clueless that I didn’t realize this would be Easter weekend, yesterday Easter Sunday.
When I was growing up, I knew the liturgical calendar. I knew when it was Good Friday and Easter Sunday. Had I been going to church, I would have known.
I’ve always loved Easter. It’s flush with hope and full of renewal. It’s always been special. Almost everyone pauses to observe the season. We prepare special foods and, of course, got new clothes to go to church on Easter Sunday.
Besides Christmas, Easter Sunday is the one other time when anyone who hadn’t gone to church in a while, makes an appearance (and vows to themselves to continue attending).
I didn’t attend Easter service yesterday but I did go to church — at Bath Abbey. And I promised myself to return.
Happy (Belated) Easter Sunday!

Hi Marcia
Are you in the UK at the moment? I had no idea.
Been invited to ‘the wedding’? Having lots of fish and chips?
Those photos are WOW. Must have been amazing to visit there.
I came back just a few hours ago, Narelle. Thought I’d download the photos as I’m not sleepy – yet. I won’t be going to the wedding — other plans, you see.
Yes, I had lots of fish and chips, shepherd’s pie and steak and ale pie. Bath is actually quite beautiful. Small town with some pretty impressive looking buildings. I’ll post some more photos once I’ve downloaded them.
Hi Marcia, great photos, I’m not a religous person, but I love viewing the old cathedrals. Glad you enjoyed your visit & the food!
Thanks, Tony. I love them too.
Yes, I had a great time and enjoyed the food as well. Sorry we couldn’t have that beer but next time.
Marcia
