The reading of the twelve Gospels heralding the passion of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ were read on Thursday evening; the final Gospel telling us of the sealing of the tomb and the setting of the watch. After the service, Sonya Finno and her able crew assembled the beautiful grave site. Pictures below document the event.
