Visit the Stations of the Cross in Roebuck Chapel during Lent
|
|
|
During this season of Lent, you are invited to visit Roebuck Chapel and our display of the Stations of the Cross. You may use these images and scriptures as a spiritual guide during Lent. The Chapel is open on Sundays or during weekly office hours for personal prayer and reflection. Our Good Friday services (April 14 - 12:15pm & 7pm) will be held in Roebuck Chapel with these images helping to guide our worship.
The Stations of the Cross are a remembrance of the final scenes of the life of Jesus. By considering artistic renderings of these challenging moments, we are invited to reflect and pray on the life and death of our Lord. Typically, the Stations of the Cross are made available in Lent and/or during Holy Week as we spiritually prepare for Easter.
The artwork was made available by the artist, Michael D. O’Brien (studiobrien.com). Mr. O’Brien graciously agreed to share his images in support of our church’s worship. We give thanks for Mr. O’Brien’s generosity and for the ways in which he uses his gifts to help others worship our Lord.
