Good Friday
From today's "Coming Up on Grace Street" e-message.
My Dear People,
Today we observe Good Friday. Our noon liturgy was poignant as the Rev. Kate Jenkins reminded us that "the point is not what sense we can make of the cross, but what sense the cross makes of us." In just a little while, we will go still deeper into Good Friday as we follow the Stations of the Cross.
As we make our way through Holy Week, I can't help but begin to sense the hope of Easter on the horizon. Tomorrow evening, Bishop Shannon Johnston will preside over our Easter Vigil service at 7:30 p.m., during which 24 people will be confirmed or received, or will reaffirm their Baptismal Vows. And on Easter Sunday, I look forward to seeing each and every one of you for a worship experience and celebration that exemplifies living, laughing, and loving as Christ's disciples in the heart of the city.
As Bishop Shannon reminded us at the close of our 2010 Lenten Series: As Christians, we don't get up on Sunday and decide whether or not to worship. Indeed, worshiping the Living God is the most important thing we do; it is, yes, at the heart of everything we do.
Your brother in Christ,
Wallace+
