A friend of mine gave me this picture of Jesus carrying the cross. It is done with a scroll saw and backed with purple velvet. How fitting for this Good Friday. Yesterday was Maundy Thursday and our confirmands made their first Communion, another step on their journey to Confirmation in May.Today we have services at noon and this evening. The Church is stripped of all decorations and the picture and crucifix are veiled in black organza. We will leave the Church in silence.

Thank you for visiting me and for commenting on my thoughts about prayer...
what is the name of your church...
and to think your grandpa did the numbers for the hymn board...
Communion before confirmation....is this new?
My Church is St. Matthew in Lemont. It is a Missouri synod church. Communion before Confirmation is newish. I remember the Confirmands making their first Communion on their Confirmation day.
I like looking at you blog, you are a very talented photographer and writer.
