Risen Indeed!

I'll always be indebted to the Greek community that surrounded Elissa and me during the many years we lived in Astoria.  I continue to be inspired by the customary greeting they give one another not only on Easter Sundays, but for a full forty days afterwards:

    Christos anesti!
    Alithos anesti!

    He is risen!
    He is risen, indeed!

Can I get an Amen?
