Piano Recital

My last piano recital was on Saturday May 8th. My teacher Emily and I played a duet together for one of my pieces "Chariots of Fire theme for 4 hands". I also played "Twilight" by F. Caton (1901-1966).

Hike For Life

On April 30th, our Youth Group went to the Hike for Life in Ottawa. On the walk you can walk 10 or 5k. We all walked the 5k. The clown was extra... we did not bring him along... never been a clown person, I had to work through this one. Someone in the group (who shall remain nameless) found out I don't like clowns and constantly sent him my way. I love this picture, it's so bright and cheery.

We are all going to the March for Life on Thursday together. There is a bus going from our Church. Mom and Shawn are going to the Pro-life Youth conference the next day while I'm at work.

Internet is back...

There will be more posts coming soon!

No Internet...

We don't have any internet at home right now. I'm not sure when it will be up and running again... hopefully soon!

Have a nice week everyone. DON'T FORGET TO VOTE!!!

Happy Easter Everyone!!! He IS Risen...

We had a nice family day yesterday... We went to my Uncle's church in the morning for the worship service. We had a quiet afternoon at home. In the evening we went over to Nana and Papa's house for a lovely Easter dinner. Thanks so much! Uncle Robin, Aunt Gwen, Mary and Leah were able to come for dinner. We had a great time together. It was nice that Scott was able to come home for the weekend... Shawn is driving him back to Ottawa this afternoon. His jury has been changed (again) to May 4th. Prayers would be appreciated.

Christ the Lord is risen today, Alleluia!

Heaven and earth in chorus say, Alleluia!

Raise your joys and triumphs high, Alleluia!

Sing, ye heavens and earth reply, Alleluia!

- Charles Wesley "Christ The Lord is Risen Today"

Holy Week

The Easter Triduum started last night with Holy Thursday. During the service we were celebrating the last supper and the washing of the feet.

This is my body, which is given for you, do this in memory of me.

- Luke 22:19

All the churches in Almonte were part of "walk of the cross" through town starting at 12:00 noon today. The walk ended at our church. We went inside for a message from Father Lindsay and some singing.

Good Friday - Our Lord's Passion. A solemn Mass was at 3pm today after the walk of the cross.

"Father, into your hands I place my spirit".

- Luke 23:46

We look forward to the Easter Vigil at 8pm tomorrow. We will celebrate our Risen Lord!

"And He departed from our sight that we might return to our heart, and there find Him. For He departed, and behold, He is here."

- Saint Augustine

Usually, we go to Sunday Mass on Easter Sunday but this year we are going to visit Cedarview Alliance in Barrhaven. It's the church were my Uncle is now the pastor. We haven't been before so we are looking forward to going.
