As We Gather

Do You suppose it is possible that various people who were involved in Jesus’ suffering and death ever had the opportunity to talk with one another about it?...perhaps even right then, while the events were happening? Can you imagine what they might have said?... people like:

-Malchus, whose ear was cut off and healed at Gethsemane, and Mark, who ran from the garden naked;

-Barabbas, the criminal released when Jesus was condemned, and Caiaphas, the high priest who led the cries for his release;

-Pontius Pilate, the governor, and Procula, his wife;

-Simon of Cyrene, who carried Jesus’ cross, and the Centurion who compelled him to;

-The Two Thieves who were crucified with Christ;

-Mary, Jesus’ grieving mother, and John, the ‘beloved disciple’ who took her into his home.

If you could have listened to conversations like those, what might you have OVERHEARD?

With piercing insight and dramatic reality, these Lenten services invite us to eavesdrop on the concerns and conflicts of people whose lives were touched-and changed- by the crucifixion of Jesus Christ- just as our lives have been.

is extended to the family and friends of Bob Mueller, who died on the 11th in Sunnyside Manor. A Memorial Service was held on the 18th here at Good Shepherd.. May the God of all comfort strengthen all who mourn with the hope and promise of the resurrection and reunion in heaven.

Seasonal Insight
