Holy Week Recollections

A miniature procession of Good Friday
Sharing some more recollections from the Holy Week celebrations from the past 4 years in Malta. These scenes show a typical miniature procession with small hand-made figurines displaying the entire procession of Good Friday. There are also scenes from an exhibition of crosses and crucifixes, as well as a typical baroque parish church dressed up in black tapestry during Lent. The last photo shows a miniature church, complete with a set of statues, main altar, and side-altars, including paintings, candlesticks, etc. Tomorrow we'll focus on Holy Thursday, especially the Altars of Repose, the pride and joy of many churches, which unfortunately will not be set up this year.

  1. Hi Fr. Julian! My name is Abbie and I went to St. Francis School in Bend. I was just working on a school project for theology and stumbled across your blog. I just thought I'd say thank you for being such an amazing pastor at St. Francis. Last time I saw you was probably 5 or 6 years ago (I'm now a sophomore in high school) I learned so much from you and still remember your incredible homilies to this day. Hope all is well with you and your family and I'm so glad your blog is still up!
