Elnora looked at her watch. There was only twenty minutes left to go.
" Happy Easter Elnora". Sylvia Chase smiled. In her hands was an egg souffle dish. " The egg souffle is here".
Soon, a couple more church members brought egg souffle dishes. They helped warm up hot cross buns. Others helped Elnora pour orange juice. She waited patiently for the service to end.
A short time later, the first of the sunrise parishoners began coming down the stairs.
" Happy Easter Elnora". Mildred Gerch hugged her friend. " Christ is risen".
" Christ is risen indeed". Elnora handed her a paper plate of egg souffle and a hot cross bun.
The sunrise service crowd was small. Elnora had just enough egg souffle to go around. When the traffic had slowed down, Elnora sat down to rest.
