Extinguished
Lent/Easter
Traveling Calvary's Road
From Ash Wednesday Through Easter
Introduction
Almost 2,000 years ago, Good Friday seemingly extinguished the light of Christ come into the world. This service recalls that sense of emptiness by beginning (after an opening hymn and one or more pastoral reflections) in darkness. Candles are lit as passages about Jesus, the light of the world, are read from John's gospel. Then the focus turns to the seven last words spoken from the cross, and the candles are extinguished, returning the area to darkness.
