On Maundy Thursday night, the Eve of Good Friday, the Church of The Messiah Youth Group spend the night at the church in immitation of the night Jesus spent with his disciples before his arrest. The group and their teaches prayed, talked, and watched movies. At one point they decided to take a processional cross with them on a long walk up to
Casa Loma and back. During their walk in the city they received a number of encouraging comments from passersby. The group stayed the next morning through until the Good Friday service, where they took parts in a dramatic reading of the Passion of the Christ. The evening is one that none are likely to forget!
