Stations of the Cross 7:00 PM Confessions 7:30 PM

Tonight's Stations of the Cross will be led by Holy Cross Men's Group and will use the "Stations of the Cross with the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus" as prayer. It's an interesting resource, more wordy than we are used to, but quite beautiful. If you remember the Stations authored by Pope Benedict, it is on par.

The reflections focus on the self-giving of Christ on the road to Calvary which leads directly to the Eucharistic sacrifice at Mass. "At each of the fourteen stations, readers are encouraged to offer themselves to the Sacred Heart of Jesus by uniting their sufferings with his in the Eucharist."

Please join us beginning at 7:00 PM for Stations followed at 7:30 PM by confessions.

Stations of the Cross Tonight 7 PM; Confessions 7:30 PM

 

Each week during Lent, we have been selecting a different version of the Stations for prayer. Tonight's Stations of the Cross will be scriptural stations of the cross and begin at 7 PM followed by confessions at 7:30 PM. We have already prayed this popular version during the first week of Lent.

Stations of the Cross on Friday Nights During Lent

It was wonderful praying Stations of the Cross in the new church. The altar servers and I had to be sure where we were going and we traced out the route for the first time. 

A reminder that Stations begin at 7 PM usually conclude by 7:30 PM and will be followed by confessions.

 

Tonight Stations of the Cross in Art followed by Confessions

A reminder that tonight's Stations of the Cross will be the Scriptural Stations of the Cross once prayed by John Paul II. Since they do not correspond to the traditional Stations we have hanging in our church, we will once again use artistic representations of these Scriptural passages to help our evening meditation.

The Sacrament of Reconcilation will also be availabe immediately after the Stations are prayed. Please join us.
