Holy Thursday
and Easter Vigil Celebrations 2015
In
Indianapolis there are three groups of inclusive communities: The Women at the
Well, St Mary of Magdala Catholic Community and Bethany House Church. The Women
at the Well is a catacomb community that Bishop Nancy Meyers, RCWP leads. Mary
of Magdala is led by Maria McClain, RCWP and Annie Watson, ARCWP is the Deacon
for this group and Bethany House Church meets at Mary Weber’s home.ARCWP. My
husband, Gary and I are involved regularly with all three communities. This year our communities combined to celebrate
Holy Thursday and the Easter Vigil together.
On Holy Thursday several of us made lamb stew for the Seder meal that
was followed by a foot/ hand washing ceremony and then the Eucharist was
shared. The foot washing between and
among RCWP and ARCWP was especially poignant to me. We are different streams in
the same river but coming together in unity and love was really all that
mattered on these holy nights. I believe that our bonds deepened at these
liturgies and our differences simply did not matter. Here are some photos from
both liturgies. Mary Weber, ARCWP
