Last Easter Sunday I was in the ER with my husband. He was fighting a war with his body. His blood sugar had dropped dangerously low. He was almost in a coma. He rode in an ambulance. He recovered well and fully and we even went on to have Easter dinner that evening.
This Easter finds us fighting a war with an enemy we can’t see. We imagine it at every turn. We are spraying and disinfecting indiscriminately to thwart the demon that is wrecking our very existence.
We have been told to focus on Jesus and not the storm. Even though Easter as we know it is cancelled, it is almost a blessing that we are going through this during the Easter season because it helps us to put the focus where it needs to be.
Our bishop has asked that we hang palms, or greenery, on our doors to commemorate Palm Sunday. I have no palms and my husband just trimmed up everything and disposed of the branches so I have no other greenery. So, what is a paper crafter to do? Improvise.
Wishing you a wonderful and meaningful Palm Sunday! Stay in, stay well and stay safe!

Your paper leaves look just fine on the door this Palm Sunday.
Thank you! My daughter did paper as well and they were way better than mine but she is very artistic and she did more and put them in the shape of a cross on her front door — It is lovely! Now if the sun will just come out!
