Friday, March 29: Living Stations of the Cross: A Good Friday Prayer Service
All are invited to pray the Stations of the Cross on Good Friday, March 29, at 3:00 p. This year’s stations will be presented with movement, music, scripture and reflection. Susan Olsen, our Catechetical Coordinator for Children’s Ministries, has developed a “Living Stations of the Cross” in which the image of each station is depicted by people forming a “picture” of the station in life-size, three dimensional form. Scripture is shared with a brief reflection, and the community is invited to respond in song. To set the scene and draw the community into the experience, the service begins with a movement prayer in which the entirety of the Stations is presented to the music of Samuel Barber’s “Adagio.” The movement prayer is then followed by the stations themselves. As always, the service will conclude with an opportunity for veneration of the cross. On this most holy day on which we remember the passion and death of our Lord, please join us as we take you to Jerusalem to make this walk with Jesus.
