Good Friday until Easter Sunday

The Easter preparations and celebrations have been pretty full on! The younger Sisters set off around 6.00am to walk the Way of the Cross through the local towns/villages around 20 km. The Stations finished near our Parish Church of the Holy Spirit in a very large paddock. 

There were hundreds of prople sitting under the shade of large trees and a number beyond the trees with umbrellas to share them from the sun.
Even though we really could not hear the readings the people were very reverent. It was lovely to be part of this great manifestation of Faith

Good Friday Evening

Good Friday Evening we had the neighbours and their children come to the convent grounds to practice for the Processional for Easter Sunday. They danced the Bible to the Altar. We were all out in the grounds around 8.00pm. Florescent lights on the outside of the Convent gives sufficient light to gather after dark.

These children are our next door neighbours. They have a gate that lets them into our property. 

The family looks after the convent when the Sisters are away.
