Today whilst we wait for Christ our light the reflection is on a mosaic which picks up themes of creation from the book of Genesis. At the Easter vigil we will listen to the story of salvation - the story of how we have been saved and given new life through Jesus' death and resurrection. Apsis mosaic from Basilica San Clemente in Rome, “Triumph of the Cross,” 12th century
