Stationsofthecross

Each Friday during Lent, many churches invite the faithful to attend the Stations of the Cross – to pray through 14 key events on the day of Christ’s crucifixion as a way to “walk with our Lord” on his way to Golgotha.

Normally we would visit each of the stations in church to pray, but due to our current circumstances another way the Stations of the Cross is to pray it in your home as a family. We found this fabulous article on how to do this at home.

First, get Stations of the Cross pictures from the document above

Next, hang the pictures with paper clips or clothes pins around your house.When done, all 14 Stations of the Cross are hanging in the living room, dining room, etc. Finally, wait until the sun goes down, and then turn off the lights and take out a flashlight!

The children can take turns shining the light on each station as they pray and walk their own little Via Dolorosa — the road Jesus walked as he carried His cross to Golgotha.
