About the event
What We Do at the Stations of the Cross
The Stations of the Cross, also known as the Way of the Cross or Via Crucis, is a Christian tradition that involves a series of 14 images or stations depicting the events of Good Friday, from Jesus' condemnation to His burial. Here are the typical activities performed during this devotion:
Prayer: Participants pray at each station, reflecting on the significance of the events depicted.
Meditation: Each station provides an opportunity for personal or communal meditation on the suffering of Jesus.
Scripture Reading: Many traditions include readings from the Bible that correspond to each station.
Hymns or Songs: Some groups may sing hymns or songs that relate to the themes of suffering and redemption.
