Why Are Stations of the Cross so Important?
Stations of the Cross commemorate the crucifixion and death of Jesus on the cross. There are 14 stops, each depicting a moment in his journey to Calvary, often through sacred art, prayer and reflection. The practice begins with the path of devout pilgrims through Jerusalem along the Way of the Cross.
