April 22nd was Good Friday: we felt it this year!
Sing a Song of Lament
The old spirituals and gospel hymns can still reach
into the deeper recesses of our souls.
They can encourage us to voice our own pain
on the day we remember Jesus' death.
This Song of Lament
is different
than the traditional Good Friday service.
It offers a special way to get in touch with the depth
of Good Friday's truths.
Using prayers, scripture readings and special music,
this service
encourages you to place yourself near Jesus
during his sufferings ... to feel closer to him.
The haunting music of flute, clarinet, percussion, bass and piano
draws people into the rhythm of the day, allowing them to mourn.
"To prepare your soul for both death and resurrection."
