Tonight was the Maundy Thursday service at church and it involves a foot washing. Jesus washed the feet of his disciples as a act of service and love. A foot washing is a very intimate and very special part of sharing the love for others. Feet do a lot for us and we have to care for them symbolically and in a practical way.
A selfie with the Episcopal Bishop of East Tennessee Rt. Rev. Brian Cole. He is a cool guy who does a good service.
Coffee at church on a Sunday morning at St. Peter’s Episcopal in #Chattanooga
Observing the beginning of Lent by the imposition of ashes this Ash Wednesday at St. Peter’s Episcopal Church in Chattanooga.
Tonight at church we celebrated Mardi Gras 2018 early with a party featuring great fellowship, food and fun. We had jambalaya and a traditional king cake. A king and queen were crowned too and they will reign until next year! Of course we parade of sorts by taking a turn around our church hall. St. Peter’s Episcopal is a fun place to be during seasons like this.
Holy spaces bring comfort and sometimes closure in life. Every faith requires meditation and listening to the divine.
