We have moved through the month of March and have entered the month of April. This month contains a sacred Holiday, which is Easter Sunday. To Remember and Honor Jesus Christ’s Crucifixion, Burial and Resurrection for the remission of our sins is the least that we can do. When we love and forgive one another we are doing for others what the Crucifixion did for us.
