Stations of the Cross

The Stations of the Cross depict the journey of Jesus to the Cross on Calvary. There is a beautiful tradition in the Catholic Church of praying the Stations of the Cross, accompanying Jesus on this journey, particularly during Lent. These resources are suitable for praying the Stations with children.

Pope Francis says, “The Rosary is the most beautiful and the richest of all prayers. It is the prayer that touches most the heart of the Mother of God.” This resource will help children understand how to pray the Rosary and provides some thoughts on praying the Sorrowful Mysteries of the Rosary during Lent.
