The fire did damage but I think it can be rebuilt.

I remember as a kid today Easter Sunday all would dress up in their Sunday best head in the Merc to Church. Basket of food to be blessed and Dad had all his seed in little jars to be blessed. Then first-day seeding we would throw the wheat from Easter Sunday in the truck box to mix with all the rest and Pray for a good crop.

You might not like or believe religion but its something every farmer thinks about as he seeds his first fields. Here is to the start of a good crop may it make it to the end.

Happy Easter and Best in 2019.

May the Rain gods find your farm and give just enough to grow a beautiful crop.
May the Hail gods stay away for another day.
May the Sun gods give just enough warmth to grow a hearty crop.
May the Frost gods not arrive till late October.
May the Snow Gods come in December and stay till March.

A great memory and your father is a good man of faith and a humble farmer. At the end of the day, all we can do the is work on time and the best we can measure and the good Lord along with Mother Nature determines the rest. SF3....this is your best post ever. Happy Easter.

If people want to believe in God why should it be up to you to decide if it's ok. I get it, terrible things have happened. Having any conversation about it is pointless. I'm not catholic by the way, sorry to disappoint you. Is it just Christians you hate, or is it any form? Well anywho what does it all matter anyway. Y'all just spoilin for a fight. Give the boys back at the mosque my regards.

Easter Bombs;
Death toll in Sri Lanka serial blasts rises to 290, another bomb defused in Colombo
Another improvised bomb has been defused near the Colombo airport in Sri Lanka a day after over 200 people were killed in 8 serial blasts across the country. The toll has now gone up to 290.

The death toll overnight had stood at 207. Police spokesman Ruwan Gunasekera declined to give a breakdown of those killed and wounded at each of the three churches and four hotels hit on Sunday, attacks that marked the most significant violence since a bloody civil war ended 10 years ago.

Sri Lanka’s prime minister, Ranil Wickremesinghe, said on Sunday night security services had been “aware of information” of a possible attack. Local intelligence had received warnings 10 days ago that “prominent churches” could be the target of suicide bombers.

“We must also look into why adequate precautions were not taken,” Wickremesinghe told reporters on Sunday.

Sri Lanka’s security forces fall under the responsibility of President Maithripala Sirisena and tensions are high between the two leaders. In October last year, Sirisena attempted to sack Wickremesinghe as prime minster, triggering a constitutional crisis.

Is canada going to send money to rebuild the french church???

Was discussed here and our PM said a flat no.

Insurance??? How catholic church must have huge amounts of money stashed away, realestate.

Almost obscene the amount of money raised pledged by billionaires,govt, mums and dads, etc in space of 48 hrs after the disaster.

Meanwhile disasters happen everyday with nothing more than a blink of the eye.

Churches in sri lanka gonna get rebuilt that tom emntioned.

The death toll in Sri Lanka is over 290 now.
Authorities are starting to arrest the murderers responsible for the terrorist activities.

Another example of the persecution on Christians.

The whole planet went nuts on white supremacy nationalism after the NZ incident. since that time there have been hundreds of Christians murdered in Africa, the ME and now Sri Lanka. Where is the equivalent outrage?
