Orthodox Easter Sunday

On Sunday April 12 -Orthodox Easter-  Cedar and I went to attend the service at St. George's Cathedral.  It was a cold and rainy day, but we made it, because we wanted to hear the sermon of Rev. Ateek and say good bye to him before he leaves to the US. 

Sadly the church was packed with internationals  and the local community were just a handful.  Gone are the days when that church was packed with its local community.  After the service we all had coffee at the Parish hall, and the Dean of the Cathedral and the parish priest, Rev. Hosam Naoum,  told the group that Rev. Ateek inspired us to leave our comfortable chairs and serve more our community and country.  We want to wish Rev. Ateek all the best as he pursues his ministry of Palestinian Liberation Theology from Texas.
