For devout Christians, Holy Week brings us
to Maundy Thursday, then to Good Friday,
carrying us to Easter Eve, and finally to the
glorious Christendom event of Easter Day.
+
This year, like thousands before it, marks
for such professed Christians a series of
religious "Red Letter Days," if you will, for
each of those events or days that are
marked and observed during Holy Week.
+
Our Christ's Crucifixion bounds all good
Christians to remember such a momentuous
and wicked event that now binds and secures
our complete faith as open witnesses and
unashamed Christian of Historic Christianity.
+
It matters not two hoots if today's Broken
Britain has rejected the historic faith in Christ.
Those who believe will believe and those who
disbelieve will disbelieve. Yet, in the end, the
Divinity of Christ still stands forever no
matter what secular society says today or
tomorrow. Christ still stands high
above the ever lonely crowd.

Nails of the Crucifixion.
+
+
Like Christ, St. Peter Was Also
The Subject & Martyr of Cruel Crucifixion.
+
While many will go about their daily business
without a thought or care about Holy Week, such
without a thought or care about Holy Week, such
is not the case for the devout Christian or those
who actively worship as Anglicans, Catholics,
Methodists, Lutherans, Baptists, Orthodox
Adherents, Christadelphians, Episcopalians,
Presbyterians, Copts, Born-Again, and Free
Churchers. Their numbers and members
do not dismiss Holy Week as a meaningless
excerise in their Christian belief and solemn
religious imagination. Rather, they gather even
more strongly and deeply during the days of
Holy Week and then into Eastertide or
more strongly and deeply during the days of
Holy Week and then into Eastertide or
with blessings and joy.
+
As an avowed and avid Anglican myself,
I make no apology for my faith nor for
recognizing Christ's Crucifixion and HIS
Resurrection in all its astounding agony
and its eventual glorification of The Holy
Trinity. Be not afraid to be a Christain no
matter how unChristian Broken Britain
has now become and that will undoubtedly
continue to be and the forces of vile Islam
awaits to take its place over the disbelieving
Christian population that don't even stop for
one brief moment to mark HIS life and HIS
continue to be and the forces of vile Islam
awaits to take its place over the disbelieving
Christian population that don't even stop for
one brief moment to mark HIS life and HIS
redeeming presence that changed the world
and worth of humankind forever despite our
inherent sin and evil to one another.
...
Ramadan is now rammed down our throats,
while Christains say nothing outloud for fear
of offending those menacing Muslims that are
now all around us as Christ is spit upon by
those Jihadists, ultraIslamists and their anti-
Christ followers. If we're not very careful
and watchful, they'll eventually outlaw Holy
Week like they have almost done these-
days for our own UK Christmastide, too.

Dear Monty, Have a nice Easter. You
deserve it. The holy week feature is excellent. I wonder where you are going this time? Probably some
unusual place knowing you. Have a nice holiday during Easter. Much loved xxxx from me, Karen.
Hello Monty,
It was good to see you on Palm Sunday and to catch up with
what you've been up to since
we last met. Have a good time
in Serbia/Montenegro, I think
you are already on your way.
HAPPY EASTER
Jill
