Made for another world

"If I discover within myself a desire which no experience in the world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that I was made for another world." C. S. Lewis

Good Friday project

Whew! What a marathon last week was. Our church put on Chris' version of a stations of the cross for Good Friday. We began working on Tuesday afternoon and finished at four o'clock Friday, an hour before people showed up. Wednesday, Thursday and Friday were 9 to 11 hour days! In the end I believe it was all worth it. We had over 185 people show up, almost double what we expected. Our desire was for the experience to draw people closer to Jesus by understanding what his last hours on earth were like. I think it was a success. Instead of telling you about what we did, I'll show you. Click on this link to see a video of the stations. It was designed to take about an hour to go through, but because of congestion in reality took longer. People were given a booklet and it was a self guided experience. The video is about 8 minutes, but I think worth the time.
