The Way Of The Cross The Way of the Cross is a devotion to the Sacred Passion, in which we accompany, in the spirit, our Blessed Lord in His sorrowful journey from the house of Pilate to Calvary, and recall to mind, with sorrow and love, all that took place from the time when He was condemned to death to His being laid in the tomb. There are fourteen Stations, or places in the Way of the Cross, at which something took place. At each Station we should say the Our Father and the Hail Mary with love and sorrow for our sins, meditating on the suffering of our Lord represented to us at the station.
