Holy Week is such an extraordinary time: such a wild invitation to step out of our usual routines and into a two thousand year old drama. As Sara Miles writes in her latest book, City of God: faith in the streets,
“It felt like the moment at the beginning of the Palm Sunday service each year when I remove my wristwatch, put it away until after Easter, and plunge untethered into God’s time. Singing, praying, eating, weeping, I enter the current of Holy Week with my whole Church to swim in kairos time, out of control.”
Let us walk together through this Holy Week, allowing the developing drama of each day embrace and transform us. Together we will walk into the darkness of that tomb, and together we will walk out into the bright, resurrection sunlight. We will hold hands, and we will sing! Join us!
