Cindi's Easter Inspirations

Some might consider Good Friday as Easter weeks' darkest hours. For me, it's the culmination of why Jesus set foot upon this Earth and why his Holy Father's send-off, must have broken his heart. But then again, He knew, He planned it all for us. So be happy on this Good Friday, Sunday's resurrection celebration is right around the corner. Mother Teresa's quote, sums it up!

Passover is here!

The eight-day festival of Passover is celebrated in the early spring, from the 15th through the 22nd of the Hebrew month of Nissan. It commemorates the emancipation of the Israelites from slavery in ancient Egypt. It is observed by avoiding leaven and highlighted by the Seder meals that include four cups of wine, eating matza and bitter herbs, and retelling the story of the Exodus.
