Easter

Church this morning. In the grounds they had erected a cross, which, during the Good Friday service, they'd decorated with a crown of thorns and a purple cloth.

Today, as part of the Easter morning service, the cross was covered in flowers.
It looked really beautiful there was such a variety of flowers and colours. 

Then it was off to lunch at Elder Son's before coming home to flop and, I think, going to bed early!

Later on in the service someone was baptised and Monty, the preacher, asked everyone to "symbolically stand". As I said to him afterwards, "I'm still trying to work out how you symbolically stand."

Nice floral cross symbolism! Yeah, "symbolically stand" -- odd phrase.

Beautiful decoration on the cross. The Holy Week decoration is very stark.

I can't quite work that out either.
