Elnora Jensen walked quietly down the carpeted steps. She turned on the lights. The large downstairs room was used as a youth room, confirmation classes and this morning Easter breakfast. She walked over and opened the heavy purple curtains to reveal a beautiful Easter sky. As she turned around, she noticed the smiling face of Roger Corby. He was the church's custodian.
" Happy Easter Roger". She checked the refrigerator to make sure they had plenty of orange juice.
" Happy Easter to you too Elnora". He pulled up a rolling rack of folding chairs. He began to set them up.
" Did the hot cross buns get here from the store?".
" Yes they did". He smiled. " And we should have plenty of napkins and paper plates also".
" Good". She began to set up the coffee pots. " How is the upstairs doing?".
" Just fine".
