Lent - Stations of the Cross

Last Sunday we marked the beginning of the end of the Lenten season with Laetare Sunday. As we head closer to the pinnacle of the Christian year at Easter and the celebration of the Lords Passion, Death and Resurrection one of the traditional devotions is the Stations of the Cross.

Last year we did a series of posts on the stations which you can find links to below. We also did a programme on Mary's Stations of the Cross which you can listen to HERE.
