On this Holy Saturday, we are all waiting. Waiting for news. Waiting for government instructions. Waiting in the supermarkets. Waiting to see our loved ones, or hear if they are safe. Waiting for test results. Waiting for things to go back to normal.

For the friends and followers of Jesus, his crucifixion turned their worlds upside down. All their hopes and expectations were invested in this carpenter from Nazareth. They had left their jobs and homes to follow this man.

They had risked everything because they dared to believe in Jesus.

I wonder what each of Jesus’ friends and followers did on the day after his crucifixion - this day we now call Holy Saturday. Waited… but for what?

So much of our waiting in uncertainty and grief often gets channelled into activity. We can act like everything is normal and do our best to hide the pain.

But things weren’t normal anymore. Everything had changed. On the first Holy Saturday, the world was waiting for God.

The disciples didn’t know Sunday was coming; that new life was on the way. They had to go through the utter darkness, grief and pain of Saturday before the resurrection of Sunday. Things would never be the same again.

That man from Nazareth would be known as God come among us, so that death would not have the last word. ... See more

There is a green hill far away
without a city wall
where our dear Lord was crucified
who died to save us all...

Maundy Thursday
Images and symbols and truth swirl around this day.
Endings and new beginnings:

the washing of feet;
the bread and the wine; the body and blood
the New Commandment - Love One Another
the Garden and anguished prayer

And all the while, the disciples uncertain, unclear and confused.

And they fall asleep; and they fall asleep; and they fall asleep.

Will we? ... See more

Wednesday of Holy Week
known by some as "Spy Wednesday" - traditionally the day that Judas approaches the temple authorities and offers - for a price - to betray Jesus.
So a moment of reflection for all those times we walk away from God. ... See more

Tuesday of Holy Week.
A sense of dislocation, of uncertainty and anxiety begins to be felt. The authorities challenge Jesus's authority; the disciples want to know when 'these things will happen'; and we take another step towards Good Friday. ... See more

Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest heaven.
