<div dir="auto">Hi Jean</div>
<div dir="auto">I also attended that talk today and yes it was powerful. How much of what we think, and act on is based on Empire and it's worldview. </div>
<div dir="auto">Peace</div>

<div dir="ltr">The second reading on Sunday is from Colossians, I heard a speaker on it this morning. He pointed out that it was written in the time of the Roman Empire, probably the time of Nero, Almost all the titles etc contained in the letter were ascribed
to Nero so this letter is really in part against the Empire. Apparently at the end of the letter Paul reminds his reader that he is in chains - perhaps because of this letter. The speaker called us to be aware of Empire in our time and how it surrounds us
and our need to make the choice for Christ.

<div>I am expressing this badly but it was a very impressive talk.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks John for your research on this Feast.</div>
