La Pascua

In light of today being Easter Sunday I thought that I should go to church for the first time in a couple weeks...don't let my dad know that.:) Instead of the usual service that is around here with a good amount of people it was packed inside the church! There was somewhere around 1,000 people there all crammed inside, standing in the aisles, in between the pews (in front of people), and even out the door because it was so crowded. The only real point of writing this is because the priest said something that I really liked. The exact quote was, "Este es el domingo mas importante de todos los domingos para nosotros. Los otros domingos son un eco de lo que pasa este dia." In more understandable terms for most of you..."This is the most important Sunday of all Sundays for us. The other Sundays are just an eco of what happens on this day." I really liked the thought of this being the end-all be-all of all days. It's really true, this day is what makes Christianity so amazing, Christ arisen, aleluya.:)
