Pacific Islanders in Australia still maintain their traditions of taking Holy Week and Easter seriously. Our local church in Geelong has a Tongan minister, the Rev Ikani Vaitohi and he and his family are much loved by the church community here. And our Fiji family and others belong also to East Geelong Uniting Church. Today we had a dawn service at Limeburners Point, Geelong, and it was a cold morning at 7 am..so we had to rug up. The sun didn't shine until we reached the church for breakfast time. Later we joined with Leopold Uniting Church for a 10 a.m. inspirational service and then lunch. We sang Happy Birthday to our Andrew who turned 14 today and to Jhaih who will be 16 in a couple of days. A fine way to celebrate the Resurrection of Jesus Christ.
