A simple celebration of Pentecost on Sunday.
I’ve always liked the idea of hanging a dove over our table on this day so I was interested to learn that this was a tradition in medieval times as well.
Pay no attention that ours is not wooden, but a paper plate dove, “shot” two times and strung up by the neck. I couldn’t find a good way to hang him….sorry.

Today we celebrate God’s good gift of Spring. Though to look outside you wouldn’t know Spring had arrived!
Clouds, rain and snow all day today, possibly up to 12 inches?!
Happy May Day to us!

“In all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:37-39

On Thursday Christ stoops to wash feet. Christ the Master is Christ the servant, serving because HE loves. Saying “Take and Eat”, because He loves.
On Thursday we hear the words “A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you.” I remember more of Christ’s Words. When asked:
“Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?”
Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’
