This Lent, because of the ongoing renovation work in Saint Anne church, the Stations of the Cross will be offered in Saint Winifred church on Wednesdays at 1:00 PM (EXCEPT March 15) and on Fridays at 1:00 PM and 6:30 PM.


The Stations of the Cross, also known as the Way of the Cross or Via Crucis, commemorate Jesus' passion and death on the cross. There are 14 stations that each depect a moment on His journey to Calvary, usually through sacred art, prayers, and reflections. The practice began as pious pilgrims traced His path through Jerusalem on the Via Dolorosa. Later, for the many who wanted to pass along the same route, but could not make the trip to Jerusalem, a practice developed that eventually took the form of the 14 stations currently found in almost every church throughout the world. Praying the Stations of the Cross is a beautiful devotion of our Catholic faith, especially for families with children.

During the season of Lent all are invited to journey with Jesus on His way to the cross.
