FOURTH STATION
JESUS MEETS HIS AFFLICTED MOTHER
CAMERAS ON TRIPODS, 35MM FILM, CHILDREN'S BOOKS
The Rev. Thomas Faulkner, Artist

 

 

Clifford Goes to Dog School, Blues Big Birthday, Caillou, Angelina Has Wings, The Little Golden Book of God, Just Me And My Mom. Contemporary books mothers know from bedtime reading. Coupled with the photographs taken at eventful moments in a child’s life, they provide a data bank of memories. Many families ago a thirty-three year old Jesus looked into the eyes of his beloved mother and saw a well of sadness and suffering no theology could comfort. No more stories to be told. No more treasured moments to be captured by the camera of the eye. It was over and sorrow overwhelms.
