Stations of the Cross, also known as the Way of the Cross or the Via Dolorosa (way of suffering) is a contemporary Holy Week practice with ancient roots. It likely originated in the early centuries after Jesus’ life when pilgrims traveled to Jerusalem to trace Jesus’ path to the cross as a Holy Week discipline. In later centuries, Christians developed a way for people to take this same journey with Jesus without having to travel to Jerusalem by using fourteen stations that each depict a moment on Jesus’ journey to Calvary, from his condemnation to his burial. The purpose of the stations is to slow down and reflect on Jesus’ suffering, endured for us, so that we may experience His love more deeply.
The stations are self-guided so you may come at a time that works best for you. Printed guides will be available.
