The Hardest Goodbye
May 27, 2022 | By Raquel Sequeira TD ’21.5
Over the past few years, I’ve been learning more about the traditional Church calendar. I learned from my audio devotional that today (Thursday, May 26, 2022) is the Feast of the Ascension: the day we celebrate Jesus’ return from life here on Earth to his Father in heaven. I’m not sure how we’re supposed to feel on Ascension Day, but I find that this remembrance is making me profoundly sad.
Loving the Dying Christ
April 8, 2022 | By TJ Dulac H ‘23
How often have I found myself in the place of the disciples in today’s Gospel reading, where they do not understand Jesus when He foretells His death for the third time: “He will be handed over to the Gentiles; and he will be mocked and insulted and spat upon. After they have flogged him, they will kill him, and on the third day he will rise again” (Luke 18:34). How often have I lost sight of the final parts of our Lenten journey, when Jesus is stripped, scourged, mocked, crucified, and killed.
A Vision For Lent
March 1, 2022 | By Hannah Turner BK ‘23+1
Lent is more than a cultural phenomenon, and it is more than a tradition. It is a powerful time for intentional spiritual reflection. It prepares our hearts for more completely perceiving and celebrating the shared resurrection we have in Christ.
