Labyrinth Shapes Up

The Easter Craft Project, to create a Labyrinth about the first Easter week, is beginning to take shape. A good-sized group of interested folk gathered this afternoon to discuss our thoughts and ideas. Some of it is too early to talk about yet, but we made a tentative selection of Twelve Scenes from the week leading up to Jesus' crucifixion.

Palm Sunday, Cleansing the Temple, Withered Fig Tree, Last Supper, Washing of Feet, Garden of Gethsemane, Betrayal, Denial, Trial under Pilate, Road to Calvary, Crucifixion, Resurrection.

The next meeting, of both the Prayer and the Craft projects, will be the Inaugural Launch in Winchburgh Church, on Ash Wednesday, 25th February, at 7pm, for Exploring Prayer, and 8pm for the Easter Labyrinth, with refreshments at 8pm-ish.

  1. This is an interesting list of incidents to illustrate: I'm intrigued by the inclusion of the barren fig tree! What will you make of that rather strange episode?

  2. Ah well - that's for the Labyrinth-makers to figure out. I'm only the project consultant! But I do like figs, so I can empathise with the response!
