Stations 2011

Stations of the Cross

IMGP0542sm

Members of the Music ministries joined with me in presenting my humble attempt at a rendition of the "Stations of the Cross" at St. Peter the Apostle Church in Libertytown, MD on Good Friday, Apr 22, 2011 at 7:30 PM.

The Stations have long been a favorite meditation of mine.  They retell the story of Jesus' walk to the Cross.

The Stations depict the following scenes:

  1. Jesus is condemned to death
  2. Jesus is given his cross
  3. Jesus falls the first time
  4. Jesus meets His Mother
  5. Simon of Cyrene carries the cross
  6. Veronica wipes the face of Jesus
  7. Jesus falls the second time
  8. Jesus meets the daughters of Jerusalem
  9. Jesus falls the third time
  10. Jesus is stripped of His garments
  11. Crucifixion: Jesus is nailed to the cross
  12. Jesus dies on the cross
  13. Jesus' body is removed from the cross (Deposition or Lamentation)
  14. Jesus is laid in the tomb and covered in incense.

 

Thanks to all who contributed time and talent.  Many humbling comments were received.
