holy week: tenebrae - a service of shadows

 good friday.  the day of the crucifixion.  for today, instead of a normal post, i wanted to share with you a service called tenebrae, which is a service meant to remember the cross and Jesus' sacrifice.  this service is normally done in a large dark room, with different people reading each station of the cross.  it is meant to symbolize the Light of the World slowly being extinguished.  i encourage you to watch it, and as you do, listen to each station.  and remember.  without the cross, there is no Resurrection Sunday.  without the cross, there is no sacrifice for sins.  without the cross, we have no hope for salvation.  so watch, as you pray, "lead me to the cross."
