From Stripped Altars to Easter Joy

All ICCC clergy have chapels and prayer spaces in their homes. As part of the tradition during Holy Week, altars are stripped on the evening of Holy Thursday and then on Easter are set up again. Throughout Holy Week we had been sharing individual pictures with each other, but didn't realize what a dramatic difference there was between the evening of Holy Thursday and Easter until we put the pictures together! Below are a few pictures from around the ICCC - on the left are the stripped chapels and altars, then on the right is the same chapel on Easter.
