When my Dad was much younger than I am now, he would get up early and attend Easter Sunrise service on Mount Royal in Montreal. I am guessing that he did this regularly for any number of years, including at least sometimes when I was a boy. For a while, around the time when I entered the world, Dad was a preacher, and he always remained a believer, even when for one reason or another he no longer attended church.
It's a beautiful sunrise.
ReplyDeleteI actually made it to church this morning for the first time in quite a number of years. It was only an hour long service!
Beautiful mood in the photo. Just back from Wheelers - our Easter tradition. Stuffed!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photo, AC.
ReplyDeleteI have had to give up the term "easter." But I rejoice that Jesus died and rose again, that he is the firstfruits of those who sleep.
Blessings!
Gorgeous photo Ac... Happy Easter to you and the family!!

ReplyDeleteLovely.
ReplyDeleteI have very fond memories of one particular Mount Royal sunrise. :)
ReplyDeleteThat's a beautiful photo.
I find myself wanting to sing "Morning has Broken." I have attended some of these early morning services. Usually they are refeshing, with a chill in the air, and quite pleasant.
ReplyDeleteThat's a beautiful sunrise picture! I'd love to be right there!
ReplyDeleteLovely photo. I have never attended an Easter sunrise service but would if there was one around here.
