Walking with Jesus on the Way to Salvation - Stations of the Cross & Lenten Simple Supper

Friday, March 21 | 6:00 PM, McKenna Hall

• This Way of the Cross was originally led by Pope Francis on Good Friday in 2020 with meditations prepared by the Chaplaincy of Padua Prison in Italy. We modified some meditations to include meditations on issues in the United States Justice System in this presentation. The meditations were written by: prisoners, victims, family members, and workers and ministers at prisons. Each shares his or her experience of the Cross. A simple supper will be provided. Hosted by the Order of Malta and Returning Citizens Committee. RSVP to hdomenici@trinity.org

After the Stations, we invite you to stay and share in a simple meal as a community. You are welcome to bring a simple side dish to share as we continue our Lenten journey together. Please RSVP here to help us plan for numbers and if you are able - to volunteer to bring food and/or to help with logistics. We look forward to sharing this special time of prayer and fellowship with you!
