As I think about the Cross

Term finished at St Pancras School yesterday. We prayed before we left school and made the way of the Cross. The school hall became Calvary hill and the children effortlessly spun round in their places to follow the action. Our Lord and Our Lady were beautifully and movingly portrayed and the readers and other players were well prepared and serious in their presentation. Many thanks to Ms McGregor Boyle and Miss de Vere for their hard work.
The way of the Cross for children will be celebrated in St Pancras Church on Good Friday at 10am and we will enjoy a hot cross bun (a good morning collation on a day of fasting and abstinence) in the Wood Room afterwards.
We will sing again the moving children's hymn As I think about the Cross. In these days our focus is the Cross of Christ; again we will be led more deeply into the mystery of the Cross. Our children got us off to a very good start yesterday.
