St. Clare of Assisi Catholic Church

Stations of the Cross Meditations: Side-by-Side with Jesus
Using our own parish icons of Jesus’ journey to Calvary, these Lenten reflections will help us examine our lives and unite our sufferings to Jesus, who suffered and died for us.  They will also help us become more aware of the sufferings of the whole world, see how God responds to our suffering by suffering with us, and grow in hope through Christ’s victory over sin and death.

6:00-6:30 p.m. - Mass
