I’ve photographed these sculptures of “Deidre” and “Maura” at the Missouri Botanical Garden before, and they’re always fun to see…I especially liked how it appeared they were running through the fog at the Garden last week!

I find that fog is a very fitting complement to Holy Saturday. Things are quieter outside, dampened, and you can’t quite see clearly. It feels as though nature is holding her breath, waiting for the veil to lift.
This is how the Church feels today. We know the joy that will come on Easter, but we have to wait a little longer. We can’t hear the joyous strains quite yet, can’t see clearly the celebration that is to come. But tomorrow, joy will break forth!
