Today, as we commemorate the passion of Christ, we have a few offerings to help us mark the day.

First, here is a guided contemplative prayer created by spiritual director Janine Rohrer, musician and composer David Buchs, and me. This prayer invites you to walk with Jesus through his experience of suffering, loss, and death in light of your own suffering and losses during this past month when the covid-19 crisis has been raging in New York City and many other places in the nation and world. It invites you to breathe deeply of God’s presence and partake of his grace even in this dark season.

 

 

Second, we are having a Good Friday Movie Watch Party! Jude D’Souza is inviting all of us to join him at 6pm sharp to watch “Risen,” a movie about a Roman soldier who is determined to disprove the rumors of a risen Christ, but instead finds his skepticism challenged by the truth.
