Product Description
"Silent Witness: Mary Magdalenes Lament" is a deeply moving Tenebrae service that invites the audience into the Passion of Christ through the eyes of Mary Magdalene. Set in a dimly lit sanctuary with 15 candles, each extinguished one by one, this solemn reflection unfolds in 15 sections, tracing Jesus' journey from His anointing at Bethany to the silence of the tomb. With poignant narration, heartfelt monologues, and evocative music, this service immerses participants in the sorrow, devotion, and longing of one who loved and followed Jesus to the very end. As the final candle is extinguished, the congregation departs in silence, left to contemplate the weight of His sacrifice and the hope that lingers in the darkness.
