Bob K - The Holy Week really did me a lot of good … the stations allowed me to take a step back, before taking steps forward.

Bob Teoh - Thanks for the lead to Taiping.

Luis - Thanks for the encouragement all the way from the other side of the world!

Someone told me candles in church are fire hazards. I reckon that’s what fire extinguishers are for

I appreciated the stations and felt that it was perhaps apt considering the need of many to quieten down after the euphoria of March 8. Thanks

I envy those at BLC who are so privileged to have a meditative Easter “Stations of the cross” weekend. Back-to-Basics is always good to remind ourselves of who we are in the sight of God that He would give us John 3:16.

BTW, there is a lovely Stations of the Cross walkpath up a bluff behind the Catholic Church in Klian Puah in Taiping (just across the prison). This is a very old church on a huge piece of land. But the govt has taken back most of it and even the road into the church has been taken away and you need to use a side path to reach the chuuch.

Another interesting thing in Taiping is that the churches there have a combined Easter sunrise service at the Commonwealth War Cemetery twhere there’s a really big cross smack in the middle of neat rows of tombstones of unknown soldiers.

Rev Sivin, if you are doing this again next year , let me know.
