Happy Easter from the land of Egypt....
Some developments:
...We've been given a counselor and appointments with her in an attempt to process and maybe re-frame some of the things that have been happening here...
...the site coordinator is no longer attending the discernment events, which means that there will be no volunteers here next year...
...we had green bean casserole tonight because it is EASTER!!...
...the service this morning was nice, but the service last night at St. John the Baptist was incredible. The pastor talked about Mary Magdalene being right that Jesus was the gardener because God is the original and constant gardener (he referenced the book/movie "The Constant Gardener"). It was incredible...and the music was awesome...
...my brother and dad, and jason's mom and brother, are at the Atlanta airport right now waiting for their flight to come here! they will arrive tomorrow afternoon! so exciting!
"Easter" in Arabic is "eid el-zaaf"--literally feast of the resurrection. We have been feasting, indeed...with pizza, brownies and ice cream, frapuccinos, green bean casserole, and vegetable soup. yum! We have been feasting on this resurrection day....and tomorrow we will feast again! i love food. :-)
