An Addition to the Rosary
I got a call from an Anglo-catholic friend of mine who should, in my opinion, be a character in an Evelyn Waugh novel. He has recently taken up the Rosary for his devotions. While sipping a Bombay Sapphire martini he came up with a new addition: the Leisurely Mysteries. He called me today to get my thoughts for good Gospel stories to add to this new devotion. Of course, JP II already got the Wedding at Cana for the Luminous Mysteries. So we need some other nominees. So far we have:
1. The woman anointing our Lord's feet
2. Jesus dining with tax-collectors and harlots
If you have a bit of a warped sense of humor (Kyle, are you there?) what might you suggest? I thought of the Barbecue on the Beach (of course), but does that really belong in some way to the Glorious Mysteries?

How about the "Oddity of the Living Dead," based on Matthew's report of all them dead folks getting up and walking around Jerusalem?
#3 kid's RC boyfriend has suggested that the story of Mary sitting at Jesus feet while Martha works and complains.
Kyle's suggestion is interesting, however it strikes me as belonging to the George Romero Mysteries.
