The dawn of my Easter Holiday experience in Kerala started with this unique communion bread served with Molasses sauce to represent the wine. The beautiful church nearby the resort was filled beyond capacity but I fully enjoyed the Sunday service together with other worshippers standing across the street. There I stood, not understanding any of the words (the service was in Malayalam) but following all the rituals with the same sense of peace as in my own church in Accra, Ghana.

After a good lunch and the sleep of the blessed I had my road to “Emmaus” experience by going on the 3 hour Green Walk in the Periyar Tiger Reserve with one of the naturalist guides.

This was my first trek in the reserve and it was even more of an epiphany than the boating experience. Jain began by showing me the Piraya Bamboo Community Village Trail then we went into the reserve where I enjoyed being immersed in nature. There were so birds, and being surrounded by the jungle noises in the beautiful serene atmosphere was another example of worship.

I’m sorry to say that my camera decided to “breathe it’s last breath” as I was trying to download all the beautiful photos I took, but despite that this was my most unforgettable Easter ever!
