I'm setting up a new thread for our pre-Easter thoughts.  I love the lenten season as we ponder and reflect on Christ's death and the upcoming celebration of His resurrection.  I welcome you all to join in with your thoughts as they pertain to GC or not to GC.  I will be reflecting on a book called "Where was God in the Tsunami?"  as it discusses God's presence and role in suffering.  I'm looking for a good church father or mother to study too, as last year I studied John Chrysostom and his sermons on living simply in Christ.  And maybe some reflection on prayers and some scripture.  I come from the Eastern Orthodox perspective but feel one with the body of Christ.  I hope you all feel welcome to post even if you don't observe lent.  I hope this is a healing and welcoming place for all of you.

Love,
Agatha
