You may be familiar with that, but for those of you who don`t, here is a story.
In the CZ we do not do an Easter egg hunt as in the USA, instead we do what is called whipping girls. It came from an old pagan custom that believed that with an upcoming spring each girl should be whipped with a fresh offspring of a willow tree. This was supposed to be a blessing to each girl as believed. Nowadays we don`t believe it, but we still stick to an old tradition.
So today my brother and I went out to whip girls. And what a blessing it was to go out in the building where the church gathers. It was a wonderfull chance to meet neighbours in the building and chat a bit. I feel very blessed as we did so.
Lets pray this will bring some more fruits then just fun at the Easter.
