Good Friday – a reflection


I am aware that some of you will be busy with activities at your church while others will be unable to attend church, so here is a short reflection. During my preparations for Good Friday, I came across this reflection by Janet Lees from the Iona Community, the reflection is called the ‘Jerusalem Juice Bar’ after a Juice Bar on the Via Dolorosa.

The Via Dolorosa is a traditional route where Jesus carried the cross and where many pilgrims remember the Stations of the Cross. It can be a noisy and busy place, perhaps not unlike the noise of the Jerusalem streets as Jesus carried his cross. I walked Via Dolorosa many years ago, probably before the juice bar was established.
