Labyrinths - Holy Saturday
Rustic Labyrinth, Ault Park, Cincinnati, Ohio
Scripture - Mark 15:42-47
When evening had come, and since it was the day of Preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath, Joseph of Arimathea, a respected member of the council, who was also himself waiting expectantly for the kingdom of God, went boldly to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate wondered if he were already dead; and summoning the centurion, he asked him whether he had been dead for some time. When he learned from the centurion that he was dead, he granted the body to Joseph. Then Joseph bought a linen cloth, and taking down the body, wrapped it in the linen cloth, and laid it in a tomb that had been hewn out of the rock. He then rolled a stone against the door of the tomb. Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses saw where the body was laid.
The camera person brought me along on the walk to Jesus's tomb. Jesus died as he was born - laid in a manger. He was honored by wise women with a gift of tears. Your friend, Lisa, is honored along with him. Mourning is honoring.
