​Stations of the Cross is a meditative journey through Jesus passion and suffering using images, prayers, and silence. It provides an opportunity to pray in solidarity with the poor and suffering of our world and to walk with Jesus through these forty days.   Here at Grace we are very blessed to have our very own Stations of the Cross artwork created by parishioners and hung throughout the church.  You can preview the art in the video here.
