Blessed be Harold and Bless Yvette ❤🎉
Thank you for your wonderful words about my cousin, Harold "Chum" Rud. No one wants to feel alone in this world and clearly in his hour of need, your fellowship gave him comfort.
I shared so many wonderful conversations with Harold, both as the office assistant at the Center for Healing Racism, where Harold would personally come and leave us your generous donations, and also in my term as piano player for the University of Houston Downtown Civic Jazz Band, when we rehearsed and played at the Fellowship. I will always miss him and never forget him! Marcy Rae Jolosky
Thank you for your friendship with and kind words about my nephew, Harold "Chum" Rud. He was an amazing man and will be missed by all of our family. May he now rest in peace.
Another Angel, back to HEAVEN!!!❤❤❤
Ēostra (the West Germanic goddess of dawn, not fertility, and likely not Spring either - and *zero* relation or connection to Ishtar) has lent only her name to the holiday in exactly the same way that other Germanic deities have lent their names to our weekdays in English. Nothing more “pagan” than that. Neither eggs nor the hare were associated with her - both are a considerably later addition to her story/mythos. The Easter Hare ( not a bunny or a rabbit - that’s a considerably more modern version) comes from the Lutherans of Germany (yep, the Easter Bunny is a _Protestant_ thing). The Easter Hare, however, does not symbolize a thing. None of the egg-bringing animals of folklore are in any way ‘symbolic’ of any one thing, any more than the Tooth Fairy is symbolic of anything. The hare is not symbolic of ‘fertility’ nor of anything else. These are supposed attributes which have been repeated so often, they have become accepted as legitimate truth. Indeed, the hare is not known to be as “prolific” as the bunny or rabbit. Hares are also known for constructing nest-like structures in fields and meadows - not a huge stretch for parents to tell their kids that’s where all those colorful eggs they were going to hunt came from. There are a lot of folktales regarding the Easter Hare, some of which are still told today. The Easter Hare came to America by way of German immigrants to Pennsylvania in the 1700’s. As for eggs at Easter, they were forbidden food during the Lenten fast. Eggs are the product of a warm-blooded animal, all of which were forbidden during Lent; the fish being cold-blooded was an allowed food; hence the association of Lent with eating fish. Because eggs were forbidden during Lent, on Easter Sunday, eating eggs was regarded as a ‘treat’ of sorts. This was especially true for poorer people who did not keep animals for slaughter and could not afford to buy meat. In anticipation of Easter, in many traditions, the eggs were colored during the last days of Lent to mark the end of penance and fasting. In many countries, the colors used are highly symbolic - the traditional red of the Eastern Orthodox tradition, for example, symbolizes the blood Christ shed for mankind. The secular traditions and customs of Easter are deeply rooted in the past, but that past is firmly rooted in an early Medieval Christian Europe past, not an ancient pagan one.
Protestant’s are NOT Christian! Protestant so called churches DON’T EXIST. Protestant so called baptism is invalid. And Unitarians is the occult because God is three divine person’s. Jesus Christ is God.
PRICELESS/SIN PRECIO!!!❤❤❤
CHRIST IS " I AM "

This is such a beautiful outlook on life. The way she explains joy and sorrow and real vs manufactured emotions is so clear. Amazing. 🙏❤️

John, this is your best sermon yet. It really resonated for me.

Good job Harold and Gary!
I watched this a week late, but I liked it so much, I wanted to say so. I have a good friend who is half Korean, and she has told me of her trials and tribulations growing up in Georgia right after World War II ended.
Wonderful message this morning. Thank you.
