30 Words :: He is Risen, Indeed!

A tradition dating back

32+ years,

Living Stations

tell the

Passion of Christ

dramatically, reverently, prayerfully.

From Veronica wiping His face,

to His triumph over death.

He is Risen, Indeed!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Last week Thursday, my daughter (playing Veronica) was part of the 8th grade presentation of the Living Stations of the Cross. This tradition has been going on since I was in the 8th grade more than 32 years ago (and likely for some time before that!). I am pretty sure that I was one of the weeping women on the path. I can remember wearing a blue shawl. They did such a great job proclaiming the story through their actions. 

Although they could have raised the basketball hoop above the stage for the dramatic ending. ;-)
 

We had a very blessed Easter celebration weekend that culminated in the Hintz Family Easter graze-a-thon at my house. And then....the Flu hit, with a capitol F. It seems that my 1 1/2 year old grand-nephew who came with his grandparents (while his parents were home sick with the flu) was a little bug bomb that took out a total of 13+ people at two different family parties that day. I have remained a lucky one, but spent the better part of this week nursing my family back to some semblance of living. Blergh. 

Wishing you the Blessings of the Easter Season!
