For two thousand years, Christians have made pilgrimages to Jerusalem to walk the path that Christ walked on the way to His crucifixion. About 400 years after His resurrection, the Church began to recreate that path in their own towns and villages; this became known as the Stations of the Cross.
We enter this Lenten season after a year of great collective suffering in the world. We grieve, we are weary, and we long for the day when every tear shall be wiped away – yet there is comfort in knowing that we are not alone. Jesus knows our suffering, He knows our sorrows, and He invites us to walk with Him.
In response to our Lenten calling and the current state of the world, twelve Christ Church visual artists and writers have interpreted the Stations of the Cross; they are on display now outside at 112 Medina St. We invite you to take some time this Lent and prayerfully walk the Stations.We pray these meditations will be a blessing to you as you walk through and process your own sufferings and sorrows.
