Stations of the Cross for Global Justice and Reconciliation STATIONS OF THE CROSS FOR GLOBAL JUSTICE AND RECONCILIATION The Stations of the Cross (also called the Way of the Cross) is a traditional liturgical devotion commemorating the last day of Jesus’ life. The devotion originated with pilgrims in Jerusalem retracing the traditional steps Jesus is believed to have followed on Good Friday. Since not all Christians could make pilgrimages to Jerusalem, however, the custom arose of replicating the devotion in congregational and individual settings, often with images or carvings on the walls of a church to commemorate each of the traditional 14 stations (or stops) on the Way of the Cross. The Church through the centuries has used many forms of praying the Stations of the Cross. The form here, prepared by The Episcopal Church’s Office of Government Relations, offers the opportunity for Christians to meditate on each of the stations by contemplating the needs of suffering people in God’s creation today. The devotions challenge us to think about how we – the ministers of God’s reconciliation in Christ – can honor Christ’s sacrifice by offering ourselves to the healing and repair of the world God sent his Son to save. The prayers and other spoken words in this devotion come from The Episcopal Church’s Book of Occasional Services. OPENING DEVOTIONS As you say the opening devotions, consider the world God sent his Son to save. Consider that in our world today, more than one billion of God’s children live in intense and debilitating poverty. More than 15,000 children die each day from AIDS, Tuberculosis, or Malaria. There are more than 100 million orphans in the developing world. Large segments of God’s creation live without access to safe drinking water, basic sanitation, or educational services. Debilitating conflict rages across the globe from Darfur in the Sudan to Iraq to the Holy Land. In Jesus’ first public sermon, he described his vocation by quoting Isaiah: “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to let the oppressed go free and to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.” Is not Jesus’ vocation also the vocation of the Church? How are we as believers called to live into that vocation? At Baptism, and whenever we renew our Baptismal vows, we promise to “strive for justice and peace.” Sharing this witness with the leaders of our governments and communities is one way in which Christians can live out the vocation that Isaiah and Jesus commended to us. To learn how you can get involved, join the Episcopal Public Policy Network at www.episcopalchurch.org/eppn/ . Prior to making the first station, the devotion traditionally opens with the following, or similar, prayers. The prayers may be recited antiphonally by an Officiant and congregation (or a parent and family) – as presented here – or they may be prayed by an individual. If the devotion is said in a church, the worshippers assemble in silence. The procession enters in silence and makes the accustomed reverence to the altar. After a pause, the Officiant begins the devotion as all make the sign of the Cross: Officiant: In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. People: Amen. All: Our Father, who art in heaven: hallowed be thy Name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen. Officiant: We will glory in the Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ: People: In whom is our salvation, our life, and our resurrection. Officiant: Let us pray. Assist us mercifully with your help, O Lord God of our salvation, that we may enter with joy upon the contemplation of those mighty acts, whereby you have given us life and immortality; through Jesus Christ our Lord. People: Amen. In a church, the procession now moves to the First Station. Music or signing may accompany the procession as it moves. The traditional hymn sung during this time is the Stabat Mater, (“At the Cross, her Station Keeping,” hymn number 159 in The Hymnal 1982. ) THE FIRST STATION: JESUS IS CONDEMNED TO DIE Christ before Pilate Tintoretto, 1566-67 Oil on Panel The First Station commemorates Jesus being sentenced to death before the Roman governor, Pontius Pilate. As you say this devotion, meditate upon all those throughout God’s creation who are sentenced to die each day because of extreme poverty. The many facets of extreme poverty include income poverty, hunger, conflict, disease, environmental degradation, a lack of basic human rights, and structural barriers to justice such as crushing debt burdens throughout the developing world. The Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) recognize that just as humanity is fundamentally interconnected, so is the phenomenon of global poverty and the responses to it. The world has been slow to embrace the MDGs – which envision cutting extreme poverty in half by 2015 – but there is still time. The world possesses the resources, strategies, and capacity to eradicate extreme poverty. It has yet to build the political will. To learn more about the MDGs and what you can do, visit Episcopal Relief and Development’s website on the MDGs: www.er-d.org/mdg/ . Commit to praying for the fulfillment of the MDGs. Officiant: We adore you, O Christ, and we bless you: People Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world. Officiant: As soon as it was morning, the chief priests, with the elders and scribes, and the whole council, held a consultation; and they bound Jesus and led him away and delivered him to Pilate. And they all condemned him and said, "He deserves to die." When Pilate heard these words, he brought Jesus out and sat down on the judgment seat at a place called the Pavement, but in the Hebrew, Gabbatha. Then he handed Jesus over to them to be crucified. Officiant: God did not spare his own Son: People: But delivered him up for us all. Officiant: Let us pray. Almighty God, whose most dear Son went not up to joy but first he suffered pain, and entered not into glory before he was crucified: Mercifully grant that we, walking in the way of the cross, may find it none other than the way of life and peace; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord. People: Amen All: Holy God, Holy and Mighty, Holy Immortal One, Have mercy upon us. SECOND STATION: JESUS TAKES UP HIS CROSS Christ Carrying the Cross Benvenuto di Giovanni, 1491 Oil on Panel Jesus, who willingly took up the Cross for humanity’s sake, also commanded us to take up our own crosses and follow him. Taking up our own crosses and giving ourselves in self-sacrificial love to help bear the burden of others is the model of vocation that God gave us in his Son. In a world where so many starve for daily bread, this vocation of sacrifice can be seen as amplifying the ancient imperative of God spoken through Isaiah: “If you offer your food to the hungry and satisfy the needs of the afflicted, your light shall rise in the darkness. You shall be called repairer of the breach, restorer of streets to live in.” As you meditate upon the Second Station, consider the starving of the world, and the vast gap between the hungry and those who have plenty. To learn how you can participate and help make a difference, visit www.bread.org . Officiant: We adore you, O Christ, and we bless you: People: Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world. Officiant: Jesus went out, bearing his own cross, to the place called the place of a skull, which is called in Hebrew, Golgotha. Although he was a Son, he learned obedience through what he suffered. Like a lamb he was led to the slaughter; and like a sheep that before its shearers is mute, so he opened not his mouth. Worthy is the Lamb who was slain, to receive power and riches and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and blessing. Officiant: The Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all: People: For the transgression of my people was he stricken. Officiant: Let us pray. Almighty God, whose beloved Son willingly endured the agony and shame of the cross for our redemption: Give us courage to take up our cross and follow him; who lives and reigns for ever and ever. People: Amen. All: Holy God, Holy and Mighty, Holy Immortal One, Have mercy upon us . THIRD STATION: JESUS FALLS THE FIRST TIME Jesus Bearing the Cross Jacquemart de Hesdin, 1409 Tempera on Panel Tradition holds that Jesus stumbled and fell three times along his road to Crucifixion, crushed by the heavy load of the Cross but willing to continue so that humanity would be spared the burden of its weight. As you pray this station, meditate upon the crushing burdens that today afflict God’s creation, and how those burdens prevent humanity’s full flourishing in the peace and freedom God intends for us. One such burden is the reality of crushing debt in the developing world. Many impoverished countries are repaying enormous sums of debt, often acquired by past corrupt regimes or through predatory lending practices from the world community in the Cold War era.

  • Appendix 5 — Stations of the Cross
    Appendix 5 — Stations of the Cross Appendix 5 — Stations of the Cross Praying the Stations of the Cross (or “Way of the Cross”) is a popular devotion among Catholics. Praying the stations may be done at any time of the liturgical year, but it is most fitting during Lent, when we focus on the reality of what Jesus did for us and prepare to celebrate his resurrection at Easter. The stations involve a series of prayers and meditations on the suffering and death of Jesus. The person praying the Stations of the Cross moves, figuratively, through fourteen scenes that depict events in Jesus’ Passion on the Friday of his crucifixion. These fourteen scenes are generally depicted on the walls of Catholic churches in the form of artwork, which may be paintings or various forms of sculpture or simply fourteen crosses. They are often numbered with Roman numerals. You will also encounter Stations of the Cross out-of-doors at retreat centers and sometimes along the driveway or pathway into a shrine. The minimum, essential thing to properly practice this devotion (when you “do the Stations”), is to (1) name and contemplate the scene at each station, and (2) pray a brief, heartfelt prayer. It is also common but not critical to sing one verse of Stabat Mater Dolorósa (“At the Cross Her Station Keeping”) while moving from one station to the next. The traditional fourteen stations are: 1. Jesus is condemned to death 8. Jesus speaks to the women of Jerusalem 2. Jesus takes up his Cross 9. Jesus falls the third time 3.

  • SAINT ALPHONSUS LIGUORI CATHOLIC CHURCH STATIONS of the CROSS
    SAINT ALPHONSUS LIGUORI CATHOLIC CHURCH STATIONS of the CROSS Why do we pray the Stations of the Cross? The Via Crucis (Way of the Cross) is a devotion, particularly appropriate during Lent, by which we meditate upon the final earthly journey of Christ. Jerusalem is the city of the historical Way of the Cross. In the Middle Ages the attraction of the holy places of the Lord's Passion caused some pilgrims to reproduce them in their own city. There is also an historical devotion to the “dolorous journey of Christ” which consisted of journeying from one church to another in memory of Christ's Passion. This last stage of Christ's journey is unspeakably hard and painful, but He completed it out of love for the Father and for humanity. As we pray the Stations of the Cross, we are reminded of our own journey towards heaven. We may also meditate upon the demands of following Christ, which include carrying our own “crosses.” Adapted from Directory on Popular Piety and the Liturgy #131-133 What is a Plenary Indulgence? The Catechism of the Catholic Church defines an indulgence as “a remission before God of the temporal punishment due to sins whose guilt has already been forgiven...” Obtaining an indulgence requires prescribed conditions (i.e. being in a state of grace) and prescribed works (see below). "An indulgence is partial or plenary as it removes either part or all of the temporal punishment due to sin." We can gain indulgences for ourselves or for the dead. CCC #1471 “To acquire a plenary indulgence it is necessary to perform the work to which the indulgence is attached and to fulfill the following three conditions [within several days]: sacramental confession, Eucharistic Communion, and prayer for the intention of the Sovereign Pontiff.

  • Walking the Walk (Of the Stations of the Cross) by Carmen Acevedo Butcher
    © 2013 The Center for Christian Ethics at Baylor University 55 Walking the Walk (of the Stations of the Cross) BY CARMEN ACEVEDO BUTCHER Walking the stations of the cross—a devotional path of reflection and repentance based on events in the passion and resurrection of Christ—is being adapted in creative ways today. How did this form of spiritual pilgrimage originate and why is it important for our discipleship? nglo-Saxons knew winters so bitter that writers reckoned years by their island’s mettle-testing season: the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle declares Aone king “fifty winters old,” the Beowulf poet writes that Grendel terrorized Hrothgar’s kingdom for “twelve winters,” a 1000 A.D. English translator of the Gospel of John describes the temple as built in “forty-six winters” (John 2:20), and the Old English poem “The Wanderer” says that no one becomes wise before experiencing “a deal of winters in this world.”1 Even a twenty-first-century December with central heating can seem forever. By January, eyes scan the cold, lifeless soil for tightly folded purple crocuses waiting to open into spring’s promise, just as souls numb with anxiety and dark from pain crave the pilgrimage toward eternal light and hope. During Lent, Christians express such yearnings by walking the stations of the cross alone or in groups, on Lenten Fridays, on Good Friday, and at other times during Holy Week. Many walk the stations regularly through the year. This ancient devotional exercise commemorating the death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ is also called the “way of the cross” (Via Crucis) and the “way of sorrow” (Via Dolorosa).

  • VIA Lucis, the Way of Light Stations of the Resurrection
    VIA Lucis, The Way of Light Stations of the Resurrection Piety in the Life of the Church One of the goals of Jubilee 2000 has been a better appreciation of traditional Catholic devotions and the development of new expressions of our popular faith, which reflect the vision and theology that emerged from the Second Vatican Council. The Latin American Bishops Conference in 1979 described the value of such devotions: "At its core the piety of the people is a storehouse of values that offers answers of Christian wisdom to the great questions of life. The catholic wisdom of the people is capable of fashioning a vital synthesis.... It creatively combines the divine and the human, Christ and Mary, spirit and body, communion and institution, person and community, faith and homeland, intelligence and emotion.” The essential criterion of popular piety is that it extends, but does not replace, the liturgical life of the Church. The Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy of the Second Vatican Council teaches that devotions "should be so drawn up that they harmonize with the liturgical seasons, accord with the sacred liturgy, are in some way derived from it and lead people to it" (Sacrosanctum Concilium §13.3). Examples of this principle were the liturgical reforms of Vatican Council II which restored the "Paschal Triduum of the Passion and Resurrection of Christ" as the culmination of the entire liturgical year. The "Three Days" begin with the evening Mass of the Lord's Supper on Holy Thursday and close with evening prayer on Easter Sunday night. Prayer—ritual—sacrifice—commemoration--welcome—celebration--mark this intense period with great fervor among the people.

  • Bulletin 12Th July 2020
    Bulletin 12th July 2020 Bulletin 12th July 2020 Saint Veronica….source Catholic.Org…..is known as the woman who offered a cloth to Jesus so He could wipe His face on the way to His crucifixion. The cloth is believed to exist today in the Vatican and is considered one of the most treasured relics of the Church. Saint Veronica is not mentioned in the Bible, but is known to us by Catholic tradition and in the Sixth Station of the Cross, “Veronica Wipes the Face of Jesus.” Legend states that as Christ was walking to Calvary, his face dripping with sweat and blood, Saint Veronica, a bystander, was moved with compassion. She approached Jesus and offered Him a cloth, likely her veil, which He accepted and used to wipe His face. The image of his face was subsequently imprinted on the cloth. There are no legends from the period which speak of Veronica either before or after her act of compassion. We do not know when she was born or when she died. She is literally lost to history. However, the cloth may still exist today, kept safe at St. Peter’s in Rome. This particular cloth bearing the likeness of Christ’s face, although ancient and difficult to distinguish, is considered one of the most treasured relics in the Vatican. According to legend, it is the original relic, although throughout the ages many copies were created and some were passed along as genuine. Most of what we know about the veil was recorded in the medieval period, although it was first mentioned as being in the hands of Pope John VII in the early eighth century.
