FRI APR 10  7pm

“Tonight is the dark night of the soul.  Will the sun rise tomorrow?  We do not know for sure, but it looks as if everything is over.  So we take Jesus down from the cross.  And we strip the altar bare.  And here is the only benediction that Jesus leaves us with tonight… ‘Woman, here is your son.  And here is your mother.’ We are each other’s only consolation in this dark night.  So leave together tonight.  Leave together, wondering what Christ meant by, ‘It is finished.’  Leave together, like the disciples, in haste and in silence.”
