we solemnly celebrate good friday today. our wooden cross is covered with a black cloth, since we came home from maundy thursday service yesterday night.we will be unwrapping in on easter sunday morning. it's kind of a long wait for all of us, but a good one. remembering our lords death.
we attended a tenebrae service at our church. elias was the acolyte, very carefully doing his duty of extinguishing the seven candles, one after each of the seven last words of christ on the cross.
i'm glad he got the opportunity to take part in the service. it will be a lasting memory for him, as we do not get such wholesome experiences of worship very often in the protestant church.
