Good Friday -Stations Of The Cross 10 am

April 18th at 10 a.m.

Join us at 10 am for a Stations of the Cross service. During this service we will commemorate Jesus’s journey to Calvary and death on the cross.

The service includes prayers, reflections, and sacred art and invites participants to contemplate Jesus’s suffering and death.

The Stations of the Cross have formed part of Christian devotion for many centuries because it offers a poignant way of following in the steps of Jesus on the way to the Cross.

It originated when early Christians visited Jerusalem and wanted to follow literally in the footsteps of Jesus, tracing the path from Pilate’s house to Calvary. They would pause for prayer and devotion at various points. Eventually, those pilgrims brought the practice back to their home countries and ever since then Christians of differing traditions have used this form of devotion.

Join us for this devotional commemoration service as we walk through the Stations of the Cross and contemplate what it means for us, our faith and relationship with Jesus.

Afterwards we will be joining the Walk Of Witness in the heart of Northampton.
