Church was amazing today. As it is Carnivale Sunday, we had a rowdy jazz quartet and several parishoners brought their own Mardi Gras beads. The altar party and choir threw more beads, and candy, and moon pies as they entered the church, and being St. Andrew's as it is, did more throwing of things directly AT people than TO them. My roommate provided a nice barrier, so I didn't get hit with anything, but it wasn't for anyone's lack of throwing items our way.
So much joy, which is just what church should be. Today's gospel was about Jesus on the mountain with Elijah and Moses, and it was like a bulb turned on. All of the joy this morning? Nothing compared to what will come one day. But, as our priest likes to say, it's all a foretaste.
