Stations of the Cross

I've never been to Stations of the Cross before.

This is a Catholic tradition that takes place in the weeks before Easter. There are several stations set up depicting different scenes from Christ's Passion Week. I am told that different churches celebrate it in different ways. Tonight we are attending with some friends. It will be done inside with the congregants seated as the priest moves through the stations explaining each depiction. I have heard that some churches do other kinds of presentations of the Stations of the Cross including dramatic and/or outdoor presentations.

That I'd like to see.

A Catholic Church

I've never been to a Catholic church.

I know many folks who hold to this religion. I've never even been inside a Catholic church building. When I was pregnant with my first son, we tried to go to a midnight mass one Christmas Eve, but there was no service going on at that time. I guess because we lived in a small town. I have also been intrigued about going to The Stations of The Cross some Easter.

That I'd like to see.
