An Easter Blessing from Uganda

I received this Easter blessing from Fr. Paul Bgirwa-- a ministry partner in Uganda who built the St. George Hope Health Centre we supported last year.   I pass it on to you on this Easter Sunday:    May love and laughter light your days,  and warm your heart and home. May good and faithful friends be yours,  wherever you may roam. May peace and plenty bless your world  with joy that long endures. May all life's passing seasons  bring the best to you and yours! + Yours in Christ Fr. Paul Bigirwa St George Church and Hope Health Centre Western Uganda
