Stations of the Cross

As early as the 4th century Christian pilgrims to the Holy Land walked the route that Our Lord walked as He made His way to Golgotha. After the Muslims captured Jerusalem and it became too dangerous to make the pilgrimage, the route was duplicated in Europe. Stations were created and visited in sucession representing Jesus’ final suffering, His death and burial. They are now known as “Way of the Cross,” “Via Dolorosa,” or “Via Crucis.” This year everyone has the opportunity to make this pilgrimage at St. John’s:
