Ash Wednesday 2023

 

Gathering supplies for  Lent this year.

 Still deciding my approach and the journey.

It will be interactive, responsive, 

with mixed media.

Visual Faith Ministry has many new things

 for Lent this year.

Spotted this at a Doctor's office today.

The bright yellow hope of Spring still tangled

 in the stark brown and dead looking bush branches.

That is really the story of Lent. 

Living with the barren 

amidst the hope of new life.

This cross is in the caves of St. Jerome

 under the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem.

He lived here in this place for years 

to translate the Vulgate Bible.

This image is a certain reminder 

of our Lenten journey.

Up to Jerusalem and to the cross -

ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
