Station 11
-
(
Jesus is Nailed to the Cross)
As those gathered reflected
on a picture of Our Lord’s hands being nailed to the cross - we
heard the heart-wrenching sound of those nails being driven into
Our Lord.
Station 12
-
(
Jesus Dies on the Cross)
We
all shared in a moment of silent prayer and
thought about Jesus’ suffering and dying on
the cross for our sins.
Station 13
-
(
Jesu is Taken Down from the
Cross
)
Tony DeMarco offered his insight on
bein taken down from the cross. A cross
of a debilitating illness that caused him so
much pain that at times he would ask Our
Lord, “Why have you abandoned me”? He
ended his talk with his miraculous healing
and understanding of never having been
abandoned.
Station 14
-
(
Jesus is Laid in the Tomb)
Trey & Kim Bowman lost
their 8 year old daughter last year to cancer and they told us how they
know that death is not the end. They so warmly and lovingly shared
their own experience of the resurrection of
Our Lord on the third day after his death.
All of these testimonies can be viewed on our
website at
The beautiful music for this event was
provided by David Aguillard.
This event is always scheduled for
the second Friday of Lent - so
