Could you walk a mile in Jesus’s shoes? The Stations of the Cross bring us closer to Christ as we meditate on the great love He showed for us in His most sorrowful Passion.
Evening Prayer during Lent

Stations of The Cross
(Week 1)

and here for the text
The Stations of the Cross provide us with thoughtful material for prayer and meditation. Tracing Jesus’s journey from condemnation to crucifixion increases both our sorrow for our sins and our desire for His help in avoiding temptations and in bearing our own crosses. Meditating on Christ’s passion can help us become more like Him in imitating His virtues of obedience, humility, charity, patience and perseverance. The ‘Stations’ are not the preserve of anyone Christian denomination but prayed by any Christians wishing to trace Jesus’ steps as part of their lenten discipline.
