And see? Here we are, talking about it. ;^)Rev.

He told me the Easter greeting wasn't "Happy Easter" but something that made a lot of sense to me. <br />TRADITIONAL ORTHODOX EASTER GREETING<br />It is customary among Orthodox Christians to greet one another during Easter season with the Paschal greeting. The salutation begins with the phrase, "Christ is Risen!" The response is "Truly, He is Risen!"<br />Terryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02693579680266086557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4860897900615196454.post-68125266035159446172017-04-14T09:53:17.498-08:002017-04-14T09:53:17.498-08:00Suz - almost all of us grew up hearing the KJV.

Like you said, it's being noticed & received, and that's what matters. Thank you for the kind words, and I pray your Easter is the same.Rev.
