Happy Easter!

We hope you have a blessed Easter. I am reminded that we had hoped that today, Easter Sunday, would be Bob's 'coming out' from the cave. And well, as you know, he got better a long time ago. Actually 'came out' on Ash Wednesday, six weeks ago. Pastor Sue said that resurrection is about flesh and blood. We know this to be true in the Speirs household. And too, we also know in a real personal way the power of the spirit. And the two together is like, wow, almost like a mind bender. Human + divine = Christianity.

Here's more information on Haile Selassie, who my neighbor Elieshi described as a 'good man' when I asked her about him. I was thinking about him as I stared at the Ethiopian cross during church today. And as the Ethiopian women elders came forward in their traditional dress to redress the alter. Almost like we were right there, 2000 years ago when the women found the tomb empty.

Peace and joy to you, friends. Thanks so much for coming over.

Love, T
