Easter Recpies

Christian but not Catholic, can you tell me how, if you celebrate Lent and Easter?

I been a Catholic for 47 years and decided to cut all ties to the Church last July. I have always celebrated Lent and Easter with Catholic rituals and rules, some will always be part of my life, as stations & Rosary, although I question some issues Hail Mary at this time. My Bibles are all King James and I have not been seriously exposed to any other at this point. I tried to establish on mine with other sources, an idea of what the practice of other Christians. Passover, which seemed the proper way for me – but what about others who are not Jewish? Please do not respond to insults or vents in this issue — email them to me if you wish. This is very important to me and hopefully learn something. Thank you,

I do not celebrate not one. I choose as Paul said not to "esteem day above another." I treat every day as a day to love and of praise to the Father sent Jesus to show me the way! The days you are talking about the teachings of the man not the teachings of the Spirit of God.

If you really want to get people into the Christmas spirit when they come to your home for the holidays, here are some decorating ideas Christmas door can be an excellent first step. Your entrance is the first thing people see when they come home, so it could be the most important part of your Christmas decorations.

One of the interesting ideas door decorating Christmas some people have tried is to look your door as it is wrapped in a giant present. To do this, place the door to the edge and fold the paper in itself rather than wrapping around the edge. Use pieces of tape double stick paper to your door. You can use the same trick to put on large pieces of ribbon, then let a Big Bow in the center. You May want to test the tape on your door to make sure it does not bother painting.

For a variation on this idea, make a small door which led out of cardboard for the elves to use. Cover the cardboard with the same color you've covered your real door. Add a small wreath or ribbon to match your real door. Set it aside to your real door and put a little note that says "Enter The elves here!"

If you want to try something different and you have someone of art in your family, you can cover your door with Bristol board that shows a scene from what it looks like inside. When People walk to the door, it will look like the door is already open and they will be greeted by a scene of celebration. You can make it look like the lobby of your home you can add Santa Claus, elves or whatever your imagination can find. If you use Bristol board, instead of paper, there is something you can use again next Christmas.

Over there is nothing more traditional and charming, like a beautiful crown on your door. This idea never goes out of fashion. Go to your local craft store or browse a magazine for an idea that you like. If you yourself or buy ready-to-crown, you can have fun. Invite a friend or neighbor to make a wreath with you. Instructions for Christmas wreaths can be found online blogs, forums and videos.

The Evergreen wreaths that you buy at the craft store need to be "Fluffed up" each year. Take some time to perk the branches of conifers. Add a nice bow for a wreath simple but surprising. Or decorate full crown or ornaments with natural materials, such as berries, pine cones and grass. Put the most important positions on the crown of first and Then fill the small objects. You can use a hot glue gun or son on the throne – to wrap each item very comfortably.

Some other fun ideas door decorating Christmas include taking things from the inside and the outdoor use. If you have additional low you do not use it more, you can hang the door to something different from the traditional crown. The same goes for decorations old Christmas tree or collection of arcs of the old Christmas presents.
