First Presbyterian Church, Tenino
In early December of 2017, right after the first Sunday of Advent, I was in a park. It was an incredible park. It was Hagley Park in the center of Christchurch, New Zealand.
I was by myself. And you might think that sounds nice but where were Lesley, and John, and…
Slowly posting my journey through the Holy Land still... Venerated the rock on which Jesus was placed after he was taken down from the cross and prepared for burial. We celebrated High Mass outside of the Empty Tomb, where Jesus was buried. I was one of the first in line to venerate Mount Calvary, where Jesus was crucified and died, so while everyone else was still upstairs (atop the mountain), I made my way down towards the tomb for some alone time to pray. I made it down just in time to enter the tomb before they closed it to prepare for mass. I was able to enter and actually spend time inside the tomb without being rushed like everyone else was. God knew I needed this moment. After Mass, we all lined up and I was able to enter the tomb a second time. This time was rushed as everyone else was lined up to venerate as well. That first moment inside the tomb was meant for me alone and I'm grateful to have had that. PS photos aren't allowed in the tomb; I'll answer to God later. 😬 Before leaving the church, we ran into a childhood friend of mine, Father James Arriola. It was great seeing him after all these years. Months after the pilgrimage, the spirit remains with me still. Grateful to God for these moments in the Holy Land. #HolyLand #Israel #pilgrimage #ChurchoftheHolySepulchre #HolySepulchre #emptytomb ✝️⛪️🤍🙏🏼 (at Holy sepulchre church Jerusalem) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClSHF4KPcbOssM7cNymyapBQerT3UQfYeQg4bc0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

We’ll first follow Mary through the years she was a student and supporter of Jesus, then we will spend most of our time in the Garden with Mary at Christ’s empty tomb
#MaryofMagdala #Magdelene #Resurrection #EmptyTomb #GardenTomb
Throughout his ministry, Jesus gathered around him men and women who became a community of 120 people joined in their love for and faith in Jesus. And one of those women was Mary of Magdala. She is mentioned fourteen times, in all four Gospels, and her name is almost always placed first, seemingly implying she was first in service, first in support. However, Mary’s most significant story appears…
Remembering Jesus on Good Friday through #NotreDame's sculpture of Mary holding Jesus in her arms on the main altar... "And Nicolas Coustou’s white marble Pietà sculpture is still standing, seemingly unscathed, at its place before the main altar. It was surrounded by piles of charred debris, some of which badly damaged the altar, but there were candles still standing upright in heavy fixtures nearby."🙏 ---- This Good Friday, "this is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us..." so that we might be saved. I hope you have a special and blessed Easter weekend.❤️🙏✝🕯 📷(1st Photo from before April 15: notredamedeparis.fr; photographer: unknown. 2nd Photo from afterwards: LUDOVIC MARIN, AFP/ Getty Images on April 16, 2019 after fire on April 15th.) 📖(https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/2019/04/15/notre-dame-paris-burning-irreplaceable-artworks-inside-may-gone/3476611002/) #sculpture #NotreDame #art #GoodFriday #Jesus #Mary #cathedral #Paris #France #TheLastSupper #GardenofGethsemane #Cross #Resurrection #Emptytomb #Easter #John316 #love #books #writersofinstagram #history #Christian #writer #photography #goodreads #nonfiction #memoirs #biography #journals #bookstagram #1John316 #artwork #NotreDameCathedral #EasterWeekend ✝❤️ https://www.instagram.com/inknscroll/p/BwdW8_Yn2DC/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1hjq0xi14zol8
Lukas 24:5-8 (TB) Mereka sangat ketakutan dan menundukkan kepala, tetapi kedua orang itu berkata kepada mereka: "Mengapa kamu mencari Dia yang hidup, di antara orang mati? Ia tidak ada di sini, Ia telah bangkit. Ingatlah apa yang dikatakan-Nya kepada kamu, ketika Ia masih di Galilea, yaitu bahwa Anak Manusia harus diserahkan ke tangan orang-orang berdosa dan disalibkan, dan akan bangkit pada hari yang ketiga." Maka teringatlah mereka akan perkataan Yesus itu. Luke 24:5-8 (KJV) And as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead? He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee, Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again. And they remembered his words, 路加福音 24:5-8 (CKJVSDS) 妇女们惊怕,将脸伏地。那两个人就对她们说:「为甚麽在死人中找活人呢? 他不在这里,已经复活了。当记念他还在加利利的时候怎样告诉你们, 说:『 人子必须被交在罪人手里,钉在十字架上,第三天复活。』」 她们就想起耶稣的话来, #alkitabiah.org #matikemana.com #alkitabsaja #anabaptists #fundamental #emptytomb #kuburkosong #jesusisrisen #YesusBangkit https://www.instagram.com/p/CcaRXNZFk85/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
During Easter holidays of 2005, I got a devastating doctor’s report.
I had visited my grandma during the Easter weekend.As I returned home,I decided to check myself in one of the mobile clinics that were camping in downtown.Woe unto me, The report wasn’t very good,as per those days,it almost literally sounded like a death sentence.It was hard to sleep and tears flowed easily.
Then the Lord…
