Stations of the Cross for Children

Stations are places where people wait while they are going from one place to another. A school-bus stop is like a station. People wait at train stations or bus stations or airports. Think of some stations where you have been.

Stations are also places where people take time to think about Jesus as he went to die on a cross. They are "Stations of the Cross." They show us how much Jesus loved us.

With these simple words, Lucille Perrotta Castro introduces children and their families to the Stations of the Cross. This attractively illustrated little booklet describes each station and invites children to apply the station to their own lives.
