Passover and Tennebrae
Last night we hosted a Passover meal at our house. We had nearly 30 adults and kids gathered around our table(s) and scattered throughout the house. At Foothills we have had these meals for a few years now and last night 2 of our Neighborhood Communities celebrated life this way. Many at our home were our local neighbors aren't the 'normal' churchy type. We had a great feast and spent a few hours going through a very rough paraphrase of a messianic passover, including the 4 cups of wine which always make the night rather jolly.We finished the night with an 11.00pm tennebrae time, which included readings and singing in the dark by candlelight. It all finished at midnight as people left in silence, as we contemplated Jesus being put to death on the cross. We pick this up again with a sunrise gathering on Sunday mornng 6.00am at the Arboretum in Ferntree Gully, anyone want to join us.

We're doing sunrise too. It'll be interesting to see how many show up!
