Stations Of The Cross
All are welcome to join campus ministry for the Stations of the Cross on Fridays during Lent, at 4:30 p.m., in the Chapel of Christ the Teacher. Stations of the Cross is an ancient devotion of the Church in which Catholics walk through the events of the passion and death of Jesus Christ. It is an excellent opportunity to enter into Lent for Catholics and non-Catholics alike. Dates are Friday, February 22, March 1, and March 22.
Campus ministry has also partnered with alumni relations to offer a web-based presentation of the Stations of the Cross at http://tinyurl.com/b4qr8b4. The accompanying images take you on a virtual tour of the 10 chapels on campus where the stations are displayed. For more information contact campus ministry at 7131 or mccreary@up.edu.
