Celebrating Easter 2024

Welcome to the Season of Easter  Yes, it runs much longer than a long weekend and the Easter sales.  Thanks to joy filled Christianity there are 50 days for the greetings, the chocolate, the hot cross buns, and the 'Alleluia" refrain that will echo with hope in worshipping communities right up to Pentecost Sunday on May 19.

Thanks to our colourful history and diversity our sisters and brothers of the Orthodox communities  will celebrate Easter on May 5th, Their celebrations of the season will continue for 40 days until the Feast of the Ascension on June 13th..

In the midst of our religious festivity the Islamic community has been celebrating  Ramadan from March 11th.

Truly this is a season of new life, peace among peoples and universal hope for the future of our planet, May this time of renewal and peace find a home in our hearts.

A Song of Cosmic Praise to welcome this Easter Morning and wish you all the blessings and wild adventure that this season invites us to commit to again.
