Rather than Give Up for Lent, why not Get...a Tattoo!

Yes, yes, yes, we realize that it's traditional during Lent to give up something.  (Happy belated Mardi Gras, btw.)  Still, the Ecclesia Church in Houston, TX has come up with a novel way to present the Stations of the Cross in a new, unique fashion:  via tattoos.

The Church's Stations on Skin will open tomorrow night, and display 10 of the 14 Stations (several of the 'Jesus Falls' are combined into one Station) as newly-created tattoo art.

What can we say, other than that we admire the sentiment.  Plus, we can really appreciate well-designed tattoos, expertly applied.

It certainly shows more devotion that our typical Lenten sacrifice of naked bungee jumping....

So, Good On Them!
