As we were getting ready for our garden party this afternoon, Vinca bellowed up to whichever child was hanging out the window. When I poked my head out, there she was -- complete with two rather unusual accessories: a deacon in vestment and an altar server. She asked if I wanted the house blessed, since the deacon was going door-to-door offering a house blessing before Easter.
Well, of course I had him sent right up (muttering apologies about the stairs). So there we were and there he was, and our house and family have now been blessed. We even have a glass full of holy water to be sprinkled at Easter.
Easter blessings to all of you,
Alexandra
How lovely that the house has been blessed - now you have holy mold! Seriously, that is a lovely gesture.
ReplyDeleteI hope you are not all too miserable now that Michael has left, I am sure Granddad and Grandma will be able to cheer up the little darlings.
Looking forward to seeing you
Lots of love,
