"Women of the Passion" -- March 22 Trinity Episcopal Church in Concord

The Women of the Passion, A Journey to the Cross by Katie Sherrod will be presented at Trinity Episcopal Church, 81 Elm Street in Concord, on Tuesday, March 22, 2016, at 7:30 pm. You are invited to join Trinity's women narrators on a journey guided by the perspectives of the women of the Bible whose lives were transformed by their encounters with Jesus.

About These Readings… Women of the Passion offers a unique Lenten encounter where we experience the passion of Jesus Christ as witnessed by the women in the company of Jesus. In the format of the traditional 14 Stations of the Cross, each Station is narrated by a woman whose life was transformed by her encounter with Jesus. These include the woman with the flow of blood, the bent-over woman, the woman taken in adultery, the widow with the mite, and of course, Mary Magdalene and Mary, the mother of Jesus. The readings begin with the stories of the anointing of Jesus by a woman, his denial by Peter and the dream of Pilate’s wife as told by the women who are integral parts of the ancient story. Then Station by Station, we begin the journey to the Cross. The readings end with Mary’s wild grief over the loss of her son and the peace she finds as she places him in the tomb.

All are welcome. This is a FREE event. For information about this and other events at Trinity Episcopal Church, please call the Parish Office, 978-369-3715 or visit Trinity online, www.trinityconcord.org.
