The Good News

Now on the first day of the week Mary Mag’dalene came to the tomb early, while it was still dark, and saw that the stone had been taken away from the tomb. So she ran, and went to Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one whom Jesus loved, and said to them, “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have laid him.”

Peter then came out with the other disciple, and they went toward the tomb. They both ran, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first; and stooping to look in, he saw the linen cloths lying there, but he did not go in. Then Simon Peter came, following him, and went into the tomb; he saw the linen cloths lying, and the napkin, which had been on his head, not lying with the linen cloths but rolled up in a place by itself. Then the other disciple, who reached the tomb first, also went in, and he saw and believed; for as yet they did not know the scripture, that he must rise from the dead. - John 20:1-9

Happy Easter, everyone.

UPDATE: The Pope baptises a convert from Islam - and one likely to really twist Islamo-fascists out of shape.

Easter, 2008

For my fellow Christians:

Lord,
send down your abundant blessing
upon your people who have devoutly recalled
the death of your Son
in the sure hope of the resurrection.
Grant them pardon, bring them comfort.
May their faith grow stronger
and their eternal salvation be assured.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.

And for those of you of different faiths, I hope that you have a blessed weekend of happiness and hope.

Ash Wednesday

“Dust thou art, and into dust thou shalt return.” Gn. 3:19

Its the Lenten season for us Christians as we prepare for Easter. For me, this will involve a lot of things spiritual, but on this Wednesday it will be to abstain and to fast; no meat, and not a lot of food in any case. I bring this up as part of our general desire at Blogs for Victory to point out that life goes on - and also to advise Matt that on Thursday I can have all the steak I want.

UPDATE, by Matt Margolis: Sure… you can have all the steak you want, but I’m only buying you one meal buddy :-D
