Hallelujah is Our Song

Happy Easter from The Geeks!

So, it was a very Lent-y Lent, and a very quiet Easter, but we made it work.  Miss Chief was very upset that we couldn't go to church for Easter- she thought surely the virus would put itself on pause for us to all gather for an hour or so in the Lord's presence on this holiest of days, but of course that's not how it works.  So we processed through the house with a homemade, paper Easter candle, we sang as best as we could, we renewed our Baptismal promises, and we sprinkled each other with holy water.  And we did it in our fancy Easter outfits, with our hair done nice.  We squealed over Easter baskets full of toys and princess dresses and movies and books and books and books, and we're looking forward to some homemade chocolate peanut butter eggs this afternoon. 

So in the midst of all this weirdness, there's still hope and joy.  We are an Easter people, and hallelujah is our song.

Did you get dressed up for Easter-at-home?

Much love,
The Geeks
