Personal Reflections

Noonday Anglican Good Friday service in Greensburg, Pennsylvania followed by a lunch with the rector and his family at a local restaurant. One of my favorite things to do as part of a church service, is to read the lectionary. A close second to that is reading a part from the passion of our Lord. I only had a few lines as I was reading Peter’s part from the Gospel of John today.
