And many Churches, like ours, will have a Seder where a Jewish Rabbi (or a Jewish convert to Christianity) will explain "Christ in the Passover".
Jews who celebrate Passover have a part of that celebration where they unwittingly 'act out' the burial and Resurrection of Christ, in the use of the Afikomen.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Thanks for expressing an interest in my congregation. As treasurer, I applied for the Alberta COVID grant on behalf of the congregation. I received word yesterday that we will be receiving a grant of $2466 in a few weeks time, the full amount that I applied for.
Did your congregation also apply for a grant?
My church did not apply for the bribe.

Originally posted by mossrose View PostI was going on what was stated in our local newspaper. According to that report, the funds were to be used for PPE. It said nothing about using it to reimburse a church for audio-video, etc.
$736.25 - new laptop (our existing older laptop was too slow, resulting in our youtube broadcasts freezing)
$628.00 - audio video cables, microphones, headphones, sound cards, etc.
$524.99 - web camera
$179.98 - two motion activated faucets (one for each washroom)
$102.90 - hand sanitizer
$94.47 - face masks
$61.20 - upgrade to our CCLI ("Christian Music") license so we could broadcast singing on the web
$50.02 - Lysol wipes and Lysol cleaner
$49.08 - spray paint, duct tape, wall fastenings, etc. which enabled us to mark out 2m distances, hang up COVID instructional posters, etc.
$38.25 - disposable plastic cups for use during communion distribution
-------------
$2465.14 - total
For reasons known only to the Alberta government, they rounded our grant upwards to $2466.
