Religion

The world has seen some dark days, but the darkest was the day Jesus Christ was crucified. His body was removed from the cross by two friends and placed in Joseph’s tomb. Early in the morning, some of his followers went to the tomb to complete the earlier preparing of His body for burial. To their amazement they found the stone rolled away and were told by an angel that Jesus was alive.

Eighteen Ursuline Sisters of Mount Saint Joseph are celebrating jubilees of religious profession this summer, including two who ministered in LaRue County.

Sister Frances Miriam Spalding is celebrating her 70th year of religious life. She taught at Our Lady of Mercy School in Hodgenville 1954-57. She also ministered elsewhere in the Archdiocese of Louisville, the Diocese of Owensboro, and in Missouri.

The cross is the most conspicuous symbol in Christianity. Churches are built in the shape of a cross. Crosses are carved on pulpits or pulpits are made in the shape of a cross. Crosses are on some church steeples. We magnify the cross in Christianity. It would mutilate our hymn books and New Testament if we took out every reference to the cross.
