Seven sayings from the cross... I adapted a reflection that emerged from the Hospice Chaplaincy Course I did more that twenty years ago (how is that even possible?).

A quiet and thoughtful service attended by around 20 people who wanted to experience something of the sorrow of the passion, and not race ahead to Sunday even before Jesus has died.

Afterwards we had hot cross buns and tea... and I am left wondering why it is that hot cross buns taste so much better on Good Friday than any other day of the year!

Following my own custom and practice, I now begin to work on the reflections for Sunday, without skipping past Saturday...
