Who wouldn’t go for a carton of a dozen eggs spelling out the events of Holy Week and Easter? Only some hard-boiled crack-up.
It’s been fascinating to watch Holy Week unfold in the social media sphere. On Facebook, the prayers and meditations coursing through priestly status updates have reached a point where someone is going to need to develop a Facebook liturgy soon.
