I hope this is alright. Just below this animation on the Last Supper is a very wonderful animation that shows what the Passover was that Jesus was celebrating with his disciples. Of course most Jewish people, even though they know that Christians share all the history of salvation and all of the Bible texts that they love and live, do not believe that Jesus was the Promised one or the Messiah... But at this Easter/ Passover time we all try to be in deeper contact with our COMMON GOD OF LOVE, MERCY AND KINDNESS. Enjoy this You Tube clip on the Last Supper which features the song, "Always Knew That I'd be an Apostle" from the play and move "Jesus Christ Super Star".
I have changed the name of this blog. I now live, since August of 2019 in the New Liberties section of Central Philadelphia. And the truth is that I have not pursued much serious birding since coming to Philadelphia. But I intend to. I am still a Redemptorist and Roman Catholic missionary priest. I believe that God wants us to love, respect and care for ALL of creation as our Pope Francis says so well in his quite long letter LAUDATO SI which is about care for all of creation

SPRINGTIME AND THE RESURRECTION OF CHRIST
meone said to me recently, "Your site doesn't always have birds, and you call it THE HUDSON RIVER BIRDER. Well, yes, that's true. But I am also a Roman Catholic priest and when springtime comes, sure I am excited about the birds. Like for instance today was such a beautiful Good Friday. It is warm. There more robins than ever. Yesterday, besides the many Eastern Wood Pewees I've been seeing I also heard a number of Phoebes. And today, if I am not mistaken, I saw some Tree Swallows flying over towards the Pell Farm. So, yes, I am the Hudson River Birder. But springtime is also the time when we Christians believe that, just as the birds return North each April we celebrate the return of Christ to life after the sad mistake of his being condemned to death. So I would like to share this very well done animated video on Passover. It is a Jewish celebration. But it explains a lot of what Jesus himself a Jew was trying to explain as he celebrated that very same Passover with his twelve apostles who were also very good and religious Jews. ENJOY!!!
