Renewal

As we join with the Christian community to commemorate Holy Week, we reflect on the many sacrifices that have been made for us and offer thanksgiving. Whatever religion or denomination we belong to, let us take an introspective look  within and make an effort to remember the reason for our salvation and continue to live life with this in mind. Hope you had a great Palm Sunday and let us all make a conscious effort to pay our respects for life and humanity this upcoming week as we await in anticipation renewal this Easter.
