We hope this post finds you all filled with something of the joy and breath of Easter in the midst of this extraordinary moment of time, this spring time pandemic.
With all the attempts at connecting online, one thing became clear to me this week: you can not sing together over Zoom, or Skype, or FaceTime or anything else. You have to be together. And so, in a very strange way, it has been a different kind of 'silent spring'.
But people - and priests - are trying all kinds of different things to serve their communities and to be a servant of the one who would heal and transform the earth at the altar through the sacraments. One Christian Community in the D.C. area held their service outside on their two acre property and, six feet apart, in the open air, they sang.
We hope your souls might receive some true nourishment from this recording that they graciously sent along. The hymn is titled, "The Bells of Easter". Thank you, Rev. Carol Kelly and singers!
