| Stations of the Cross |
 |
| The Stations of the Cross is a way of prayer. We walk in spirit with Jesus on his journey to Calvary, and meditate on his Suffering and Death. Each meditation can be a personal meeting with Jesus and a new discovery of His Presence in my life. Each meditation can be deeply personal by recalling specific persons, places, and experiences in my own life. To begin praying the Stations of the Cross, make the Sign of the Cross.. in the name of The Father, and of The Son, and of THe Holy Spirit. Opening Prayer Lord Jesus, help me to be open to your loving presence as I begin this journey to Calvary with you. Help me to find in your Passion and Death, the strength to take up my own crosses and follow you. Before Each Meditation I adore you, Lord Jesus, and I praise you. Because of your Holy Cross, you have redeemed the world. After Each Meditation Pray one Our Father, one Hail Mary, and one Glory Be. After completion of all meditations, say the Closing Prayer.... Lord Jesus, help me to walk with you each day of my life, even to Calvary. The sorrow and joy, the pain, and healings, the failure and triumphs of my life are small deaths and resurrections that lead up to closeness with you. Give me the faith and trust I need to walk with you always. Amen. |
