Busy Easter Virgil

in ASEAN HIVE COMMUNITY15 days ago

Ok. It was so busy that the entire Saturday was fully occupied with church and family events. I did a very long walk in the morning, I did have some pictures for the walk, but I don't think I will have time to rant about things I experienced during the walk. So, those picture will be kept in the phone unused for awhile, probably forever until I lose it.

I think I haven't digest my breakfast after the walk, then it is time to bring the laundry to the near by shop to dry them since was gloodmy the entire morning. The big kid is supposed|d to serve as altar servers during the Easter vigil, so we need to be in the church early, and therefore we ate lunch whilst waiting for the laundry in the dryer. After the lunch, we're on our way, enroute to the church.

Traffic was so so so bad, it almost makes me think is everybody attending Easter vigil mass together with us? Nevertheless, we made it still, but never on time due to the extreme traffic. We're about half an hour late for the practice.

Choir practice is still about 2 hours away, but I don't feel stupid enough to drive another hour all the way back, and then take the trouble to go through the traffic again, just to come back here. So, me and the younger kid stays in the parish house and wait for the home minister to join us.

Archbishop came to deliver an extremely long winded homily, so long until 1 of the altar server and 1 of the patrons fainted. The weather is extremely warm and humid. The gloomy day was mostly caused by haze, therefore heat are trapped in the atmosphere. I too find myself struggling at the choir team designated pew.

My buddy is also received as a Catholic this year for he decided to become one of us, so we can take the holy communion in the Catholic church. He's the one, that tall boy amongst them. On top of all that, I think overall we did quite well. Choir sounded good, Easter vigil mass ended slightly later than expeced, mostly due to (not the bishop's long winded story) the amount of confirmation and baptism.

He's such a nice guy, no one would ever want him to stop talking though. Before the final blessing as we already way past the end time so we can make way for the next mass, AB somemore poke fun saying, "so there's no speech today?" 😅 Almost didn't faint another few more patron, fortunately it all ended there and then, with the father, son, and the holy spirit.

也只有我一個人帶著口罩。沒辦法,口罩已經常成了我日常服飾的一部份。Fashion喲

北京现在到处都是飘棉絮,大家出门也几乎都戴口罩,所以拉叔不是你一个人哈

Hope the one that fainted is okay.

Even here in my country, traffic is everywhere especially on holidays.

Altar server was alright. But the other patron, we haven't heard from them or any news about it. I guess we will assume she's ok.

Weekend the government will close partial of the road in town to stop the crazy traffic in some of the most famous tourist location. The problem being, it can't stop people from driving into town, especially our church located right at the city center. So, the traffic got piled up from the outside of the city, instead of right in the middle 😅

How are you, friend? I hope you are well. You never thought that you would ever lose the pictures of your suffering. You could save the pictures in a memory.
