Entering the Paschal Mystery

Lenten blessings from Christians for Abolition!

During Lent our blog is continuing our series of meditations on lessons from the Revised Common Lectionary.

We also have a new devotional, Healing Justice and the Paschal Mystery. As Lent points us toward Holy Week and the narrative of Jesus’ passion, this devotional – built around the services of Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, Holy Saturday, and the Great Vigil of Easter – envisions Holy Week and the Passion narrative as a sort of restorative justice process, and considers ways you can use the liturgies of Holy Week to deepen your own practice and understanding of restorative justice. The five pages of this devotional are suitable for use during Holy Week or for ongoing study during the weeks of Lent.
