The
Stations of the Cross are a devotion of prayers, stories, songs, meditations,
etc. said before each of the fourteen stations. The Stations are the story of
events of the Passion of Jesus. The Stations are also meant to be a reflection
of Jesus’ Passion, and also make you feel like you were there so that you can
understand and be thankful for Jesus’ gift of himself to us.
Before each station, this prayer is said:
We adore
you, O Christ, and we bless you,
because by your holy cross,
You have
redeemed the world.

Every
Friday during Lent, Immaculate Heart of Mary Students go over to the church for
Stations of the Cross. The Stations of the Cross are read by students and the
priest or deacon, and they usually begin around
Tony D.
reading the station.
