Miscellaneous
Croydon crucifixion
The “Walk of Witness” event in Croydon on Good Friday, 30 March 2018.
There was an outdoor service including a mock crucifixion, then a parade up the main shopping street with “dead” Jesus being wheeled on a trolley behind a lady banging a drum and accompanied by crosses, clerics and a crowd of religious types – and lots of people trying to get past. All good fun.
