Stations of the Cross

As early Christian theologian Tertullian wrote in the third century, the world is patterned in the shape of the cross. As Christians, we are called to live a cruciform (“cross-shaped”) life. As we look toward making the journey of Holy Week with, we can be reminded of the solitude Jesus faced in his own journey toward the cross. We can find the shape of his moments of suffering and consolation on Good Friday written into the world around us. Each station has a scripture passage, prayer from the Book of Common Prayer, and questions to reflect on.

Use this guide to find stations in your own neighborhood, local park, or yard.
