THE RESURRECTION – By Charles Schokman We hold so close to our hearts the cross where Jesus died But so much more than the blood-stained cross is that Jesus came back to life. The stone’s been rolled away, the tomb lay open and bare. They looked for Him, and then the angel said that He is no longer here Oh what joy they must have felt to see Him just once more To eat with Him, to drink with Him, to receive Him back as Lord. So much did He accomplish through His death upon the cross And in His rising from the dead He reconciled us back to God. Nothing else could bridge the gap that sin had wrenched apart Now we can freely go to God and receive Christ in our hearts. By M.S.Lownde He is Risen! Hallelujah! He is Risen indeed! Have a great day celebrating Christ’s ...

A Humble Australian Beach Kiosk Serving Authentic Sri Lankan Curries (and Golden Gaytimes) – by ROHAN SILVA Source : broadsheet “I made curry pies – people loved them. One lady, she ate seven in one go!” It’s fair to say that chef Nisantha Columba Perera – aka “Colombo” – has built a cult following among Perth’s curry fanatics. For the past five years, Colombo has been cooking up some of the most sublime curries we’ve ever eaten, and quietly selling them in an unlikely spot: a humble beach kiosk in Coogee that also hawks chips, Golden Gaytimes and sausage rolls. The only clue that something special is going on is a little chalkboard – nestled among bigger signs displaying ice-creams and hot drinks – that quietly lists today’s curry offerings. When Broadsheet asks Colombo how devoted his curry customers are, he smiles abashedly: “One guy drives from Mount Lawley every week just to buy ...
