Some of you will be aware of this story , if not this show how things can go wrong if you not careful
A supermarket chain got itself into a huge muddle over the meaning of Easter yesterday in its attempt to sell more chocolate eggs.

Brits are set to spend a massive £520 million on Easter eggs this year — but many young people don’t even know what Easter’s all about,” said the press release from Somerfield after a survey.

Just to add Somerfield is one of the top supermarkets here.

It then went on to claim that the tradition of giving Easter eggs was to celebrate the “birth” of Christ. An amended version changed this to the “rebirth” of Christ. Finally a third press release accepted Church teaching that Easter celebrated the resurrection of Christ.

The press release was written by Hayley Booth, 30, of the PR agency Brando. Ms Booth, who was privately educated, told The Times that she had corrected the release as soon as she became aware of the error.

An explanatory note on her second release read: “Please find below the amended story revealing Britons’ mounting ignorance regarding Easter. Note the references to rebirth (not birth) as previously stated. Apologies for any confusion.”

We've had our chocolate egg hunt and a yummy breakfast beginning with the traditional hard boiled egg "fight". Later, filet mignon at my mom's. Happy Easter to all!!!!!!!!!
 
We had a great run of masses, starting with Palm Sunday, then Holy Friday for our musical telling of the Passion story. Then Holy Sat and today with the fun, happy Easter music. We sounded so good!
I would hope so, though, we've been practicing since the second week of January!
What will I do with my Wed nights now?

Oh, and my 5 yr old is tickled with his Easter treats of new crayons and a drawing pad, and a bit of chocolate.
 
Well done Jenn!! You'll have to start practicing for Christmas services soon!!

Speaking of the Passion story...here are a couple pics of my son as Jesus in the St. John Fine Arts School performance of the Passion Play.
