It’s Our Holiday, Too

Thank you! I am certain your guests have been well fed. . Enjoy what is left of your holiday.

@DianneN I feel lazy right now, I am glad to have some time to stay alone at my computer.

@LadyDuck Enjoy yourself!

Thanks and sending you a big hug, too!

@DianneN That's wonderful that you got to attend a service at St. Paul's! Hopefully, it was in English and not in Latin, so that you could understand the message! When I was in Boy Scouts, there would always be religious services offered during big weekend camping trips when many scout troops would come together (they called them Jamborees). We always made a point to attend the religious service of other denominations and other religions to get a better understanding of their faith and customs. One thing I learned is that no matter what religion, we all worshiped a higher power, and we all wanted peace on earth and to love our fellow man. Such a shame that in reality many people who profess to be religious don't practice what they preach!

Happy Easter to you and your family, Jeff. Happy Passover is perfect. We attended a Good Friday mass at St. Paul's Cathedral in London while on vacation. They were turning away tourists, so I told them we were worshipers. We received a nice tour and stayed for the sermon. It's message was how Christians and Jews should get along. We were very happy to hear it. There are no saints in Judaism. My Irish Catholic friend dubbed my husband a saint years ago, and it stuck. lol

@moffittjc Yes, it was in English. lol. The hymns were in Latin, but we only stayed to hear a few before the sermon and left afterwards. We have mixed marriages in our family - Catholics and Protestants - and everyone gets along so well. It is rotten how many don't practice what they preach here in the US and all over the world. There is way to much hatred, ignorance, and stupidity in many hearts.

Thank you. Our holiday lasts for 8 days. Happy Easter to you!

@just4him Have a wonderful time and enjoy your holiday! I can’t believe your granddaughter will be 6 months old already!

@DianneN I know it does. It's the Feast of Unleavened Bread. I hope you have a wonderful holiday. Thank you. I'm going to my older son's to enjoy leg of lamb and my granddaughter who will be six months old on the 24th.

Thank you and thanks for missing me.

@shubhu3

@DianneN Yes.

@resukill22 Thank you and good guess! He is 6 feet tall.

Yes, that's my Saint! lol

@DianneN wow his handsome, I thinks he's 6 footer?

Thanks for saying that. To me, he looks more saintly.

You are welcome @DianneN I'm catching up on all the yardwork I couldn't do last fall. It feels so good to be able to do things outside again.

@rebelann I'm happy you are enjoying the great outdoors once again! Have a wonderful day.

Thank you so much. Have a wonderful day!

@DianneN I don't know exactly what that is. I think it's some kind of bread.

@MALUSE It’s unleavened bread.

Matzo is number 1 on the list.

Thank you! Family is everything to us, too.

Thank you! I wish you a happy Sunday and thanks so much.

It's a major Jewish spring festival which commemorates the freedom of the Israelites from Egyptian slavery.

@dya80dya No, we don't. Our religion is very different.

@DianneN It's different. So you don't celebrate Easter.

Aww, thank you. It's so good to see you again! Very briefly, it's the major Jewish spring festival commemorating the freedom of the Israelites from Egyptian slavery by Moses. Our ritual meal recalls the Exodus from Egypt and is held the first and second nights of the 8 day holiday.

@arunima25 You're welcome. I also love learning about other cultures, customs, and traditions. We learn so much on myLot.

@DianneN Thanks for enlightening me on that. It is wonderful to know about different rituals and celebrations.

Thank you! I hope you enjoyed your day!

@Sheali

@DianneN Yes, I did

Thank you and the same to you.

Thank you. We are lucky to have wonderful friends in real life and online.

Thank you! Ours lasts for 8 days. Enjoy yours, too!
