We will gather to pray the Stations of the Cross on Friday evenings. Attendance is not limited, but the Stations will sometimes take place in the smaller Queen of Peace Chapel. |
In 2021 we prepared an online guide to pray along, featuring the beautiful carvings of the Stations from our Queen of Peace Chapel, available at: |
In 2021 we live streamed the Stations several times. You are welcome to use them to aid your prayer via YouTube anytime. Feb 19: Stations of the Cross (below) Feb 26: Stations of the Cross |
