Semana Santa



This morning Stuart and I ventured down to the center of town to watch the processional of Jesus as he walked the Via Dolorosa. Little kids like this one joined in as well.



A Roman guard.



An angel.



Jesus was not portrayed by an actor.


One of the thieves on the cross.



They reenacted the scene of the woman at the well. One of the stations of the cross.







One of the priests narrates another station of the cross.



Another little Jesus. Too cute.



Thousands of people followed the processional.



Two other men, both criminals, were also led out with him to be executed. When they came to the place called the Skull, there they crucified him, along with the criminals—one on his right, the other on his left. Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing." -Luke 23:32-34
