For By Your Holy Cross You Have Redeemed Our World

This is the Way of the Cross (Stations of the Cross). The pictures are from the web and do not represent the stations themselves, but just pistures of the crucifixion--although I did try to pick ones that were appropriate for each station--some worked, others didn't.

The first set of station titles is the traditional Way of the Cros with all its more traditional stations (non-Scripture based: three falls, Veronica, etc.). The second set is the Way of the Cross as composed by Pope John Paul II to reflect more Scripturally accurate stations.
