The Stations of the Cross@Southforbes Villas

In the observance of the coming Lenten season, a Stations of the Cross was done here in our place for the first time. It is the 14-step Catholic devotion that commemorates Jesus Christ's last day on Earth as a man. The 14 devotions, or stations, focus on specific events of His last day, beginning with His condemnation. The stations are commonly used as a mini pilgrimage as the individual moves from station to station. At each station, the individual recalls and meditates on a specific event from Christ's last day. Specific prayers are recited, then the individual moves to the next station until all 14 are complete. Fr. Conrad Amon of St.Benedict Church led the parishioners in every stations and after the procession a mass was held at the main clubhouse.
