Easter Vigil Saturday

A short entry today.  

Tonight, all over the world, congregations of Catholic Christians will come together to celebrate The Easter Vigil.  It is the most solemn and joyous celebration of the year. It begins with the lighting of the new fire which chases away the darkness. We then hear the stories of salvation history.  It is at this mass that newcomers are welcomed into the Church.  I will have a lot to say about Easter but will save that for tomorrow's entry. 

Today I beg you to please pray for peace.  The situation on the Korean peninsula is getting very tense. Pray that the tensions can be resolved without the shedding of blood.
