Over 40 people took part in the Stations of the Cross this past Friday at Corpus Christi Church. Join us every Friday during Lent at 6:30 p.m. One week in Polish, one week in English. Began in Polish on 2/16. All who would like to walk with Jesus are welcome. Sun. masses are at 9:30am (English), 11:00am (Polish, with Gorzkie żale).

The Stations of the Cross are a 14-step Catholic devotion that commemorates Jesus Christ’s last day on Earth as a man. The 14 devotions, or stations, focus on specific events of His last day, beginning with His condemnation. The stations are commonly used as a mini pilgrimage as the individual moves from station to station. At each station, the individual recalls and meditates on a specific event from Christ’s last day. Specific prayers are recited, then the individual moves to the next station until all 14 are complete.
