The Guard is Set Pulpit Fall
Design Style 1325
Mark the silent mystery of Holy Saturday and the sealed tomb with this solemn Violet Brocade Pulpit Fall, featuring the unique symbol: a sealed tomb door with a lock and crossed spears — representing the moment when “the guard was set” at Christ’s tomb (Matthew 27:66).
After Christ was laid in the tomb, Scripture tells us that the chief priests and Pharisees requested the tomb be secured:
"So they went and made the tomb secure by putting a seal on the stone and posting the guard.”
(Matthew 27:66)
This powerful symbol — a stone doorway marked with a seal and guarded by crossed Roman spears — represents the seeming finality of death, the tension of waiting, and the fulfillment of prophecy before the victory of Easter morning.
It is especially fitting for Holy Saturday, a day of silence, reflection, and anticipation of the Resurrection.

Dupioni silk
What I love about ecclesiastical sewing is the quality of their fabrics and the selection of liturgical fabrics that can be hard to find otherwise. I also Like the fact that if there is a question about anything I can email and communicate with a real person not a tangle of phone prompts and artificial voice systems. That’s so refreshing.
