EASTER WISH

Easter is a time of love,
of family, and of peace.
It is a time when we say
a quiet thanks for all that we have
and for all that the future holds.
Easter is a feeling in our hearts
of hope and faith and trust.

It is a day of miracles;
a day when our dreams seem a little closer;
a time of retrospection for what has been,
and anticipation of all that will be.
And it is a time for remembering
with love and appreciation
the people in our lives
who make a difference...
people like you.

EASTER CUSTOMS

EGG ROLLING

Egg rolling is a traditional Easter custom still practiced in parts of England. It takes place mostly on Easter Sunday or Monday. People roll hard-boiled colored eggs down hills until they are cracked after which they are eaten.

EASTER EGG HUNT

Another game which is very popular with children is the Easter Egg hunt. You can use chocolate Easter eggs, or have the children decorate hard boiled eggs.
Many cities & towns are sponsoring Easter Egg Hunts for children. These hunts usually hide plastic eggs for the children to find. Sometimes the plastic eggs will contain candy, prizes, or a prize is awarded to the child who collects the most eggs or maybe finds a certain "special egg".
