A poignant service, anticipating the final days of Jesus before the Crucifixion, the Tenebrae service intersperses Psalms and chant with the extinguishing of candles. Each candle marks how Jesus is abandoned by his friends and disciples. And in the end, utter darkness falls asking us whether even God will abandon Christ and leave humanity to its own fate. In answer, the service ends with a crack/boom, pointing us towards the upcoming Resurrection.
