Reconciliation

During the Good Friday passion play that takes part down the streets of San Isidro Miranda in Querétaro MEXICO, I witnessed the reconciliation of a couple who had already separated.  As a form of prayer, their nine year old son started to carry the heavy cross.  The mother helped him carry the cross during the next two stations. Unbeknownst to them, the father was in the crowd and upon seeing his wife and son almost dragging the cross, ran to take his son’s place.  The boy moved in between them and together with tears of joy and gratitude completed the way of the cross.  All who witnessed this reconciliation shared their tears and joys!
