Alpha at SS Alban & Stephen Catholic Church in St Albans
Lent 2011 starts on
9th March
The stations of
the cross as a devotional practice have a long tradition in the Church. The
Stations are an attempt to recall the last days of Jesus on this earth, and
to journey with Him.
On our journey
as we recall the suffering of Christ we are also invited to remember the
suffering of many people in our World today.
This way that is presented in these stations invite us to remember
the suffering of today and to pray for those that are afflicted by injustice,
hunger, war and AIDS.
I invite you then
during this time of Lent to remember the journey to the Cross for Jesus, and
to prayerfully remember the suffering of all in our world today.

We hope you're able to enjoy and reflect on this scrolling
picture montage of The Stations of the Cross. Take
your time to reflect on all fourteen.

the basis of our 2010 Lenten booklet "From Ash Wednesday
to Good Friday", available again this year at the Church or the Mass Centres]
