Henry said, “Easter Sunday is always a treat for me, with the singers, ringers, musicians, and clergy, at House of Prayer Lutheran Church! I bought this suit 25 years ago. It still fits (mostly). I wear it usually only twice a year, on Easter and Christmas. Special thanks to music director and cantor Mihail Christati and pastor Christina De La Cruz.”
