Stations
of the
Cross
for
kids
Jesus died in Jerusalem.
Jesus walked from the court yard
to Calvary Hill carrying His cross.
Calvary is where He was crucified.
The path he used is called Via
Dolorosa, "the way of pain."
Since His death, people began to
make visits to Jerusalem and walk in Jesus' footsteps.
The people would walk on that same
path, Via Dolorosa that Jesus used.
They would stop along the way and
would remember what happened to Jesus at the exact spot where they are
standing.
Remember, Jesus was carrying His
cross and the different things that happened to Him along the Via Dolorosa
are called stations.
That's how we got the name Stations
of the Cross
Now let's begin walking with
Jesus along theVia Dolorosa in
Stations of the Cross
Before each Station, genuflect and say,
"We adore You , Jesus because by Your Holy Cross, You have redeemed the world."
