Stations of the Cross: A Lenten Service Project

These past two years, the staff has been encouraging households to join together for parish service projects. During
this jubilee year, we wanted to make the devotion of the Stations of the Cross more meaningful. So I thought with bring-
ing them lower and have an image that one can see in prayer would be of benefit. Three households joined together for
this Lenten Service Project. I want to thank them for the over 50 hours of work that they put in with their hands to create
what we have before us. This project was paid for by these families and created with love. They desired to give some-
thing back to God and the parish for all the blessings they received in their lives. We appreciate all the positive com-
ments about the Stations that we have for Lent. Who will be the next household to do a parish service project?

The other Stations are in storage in the parish. The staff hopes that these new homemade Stations, done
with gratitude, will increase our desire to pray the Stations not only during Lent, but throughout the year. The Stations
were blessed at last week’s evening prayer. I will leave copies of the Stations of the Cross prayer by the statues of St.
Joseph and Mary. Please join us for prayer on Fridays at Noon and 7:00 pm.

We adore you oh Christ and we praise you; + because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world. +

Rev. Peter P. Jarosz, Pastor

Water for Life

Our Parish Lenten Service Project
Water is a natural resource that covers three quarters of the earth’s sur-
face. Only 2.5% of the water is fresh water and 75% is locked in the
polar ice caps. Human beings are left with only 1% of the world’s fresh
water to use for consumption. Water is often taken for granted as a re-
newable and overabundant resource in many countries including our
own. About 40% of the world population lives with water shortages and
it is estimated by the year 2025 that number will grow to 66%. Water is a
very scarce resource.

In 2006 the UN Water Department reported that almost 20% of the

world’s population lacks good water. This means that over one billion
people do not have clean water. To make matters worse, 2.6 million
people do not have sanitary systems in place.

Catholic Relief Services and the National Council of Catholic Women

have teamed up to bring forward the Water For Life project. In short,
Water for Life shows us how to conserve the water we have and edu-
cates us as to the lack of water in other areas. CRS and NCCW work
together to raise funds to build wells where people in Malawi, Africa and
Brazil, South America can then attain fresh water. The project helps to
provide clean water for those who would not have clean water other-
wise.

This Lenten Season, we have chosen to help with the Water For Life
project. We ask that you drop any loose change you have in the water
jugs in the Narthex. There sill be a short video presentation at the
Masses this weekend. Watch for more information coming soon.

The Way of the Cross—Walking with Jesus

During the season of Lent many people look for additional ways to spend time in prayer. A very popular Lenten devotion
is The Stations of the Cross. The fourteen stations have been the subject of many authors over the years. There are lit-
erally hundreds of versions of the Via Crucis available. For example: The Stations of the Cross for the sick, for children
(several versions), for teens, for seniors, for married couples, of John Paul II, for families, for the elderly, for World Youth
Day, of Benedict XVI. There are versions that focus on various spiritual areas, on scripture, on the sorrows of Jesus. The
Stations of the Cross are available online for listening, watching, or printing. Perhaps the most popular version of The
Way Of The Cross is that composed in the 1700s by St. Alphonsus Liguori. This is excellent in a group or alone.

The Stations of the Cross may be said with others, as they are at Christ the King Church at Noon and PM on Fridays in
Lent, with family, with friends, or by oneself. They may be prayed by moving
from station to station, sitting/kneeling in a pew, at home or any place you may
be.

Some Lents I have tried, even succeeded, to pray the Way of the Cross each
day during the Lenten season. This could be a mixture of joining groups in
church, praying in my home, walking, riding a train, driving, etc.

To me probably the most prayerful way to pray The Stations of the Cross is
alone in a quiet church where I can walk from Station to Station and spend as
much time as I feel called to at each stop. It’s best not to have a time limit. This
could be with or without a booklet. Just allow time to reflect on Jesus’ presence
at the scene. Be present with him. Reflect sorrowfully on his suffering, his pain,
the humiliation of it all as Jesus Christ, the Son of God, submits to torment for
our sins. The timing at each Station may vary greatly when I am alone: perhaps
two minutes at one Station and 20 minutes at another.

The artistic presentation of The Stations of the Cross in various churches or

various booklets, or as an image in the mind, can affect the way we pray a par-
ticular Station. We see it differently based on the emphasis of the artist. One
Lenten evening in a parish far away and many years ago, we projected at least
three slides of each Station during the prayer and reflection time. One of the
members of the Liturgy Team had taken pictures of The Stations of the Cross at
several of the neighboring parishes to facilitate this particular evening.

The number of The Stations of the Cross has varied over the centuries and in
various places, from 7 to 31. The number has been set at 14 now since 1731.

The Fourteen Stations of the Cross

First Station - Jesus is condemned to Death

Second Station - Jesus is made to bear His Cross
Third Station - Jesus falls the first time under His Cross
Fourth Station - Jesus meets His Mother
Fifth Station - Simon the Cyrene helps Jesus carry His Cross
Sixth Station - Veronica wipes the face of Jesus
Seventh Station - Jesus falls the second time
Eighth Station - Jesus speaks to the daughters of Jerusalem
Ninth Station - Jesus falls the third time
Tenth Station - Jesus is stripped of His garments
Eleventh Station - Jesus is nailed to the Cross
Twelfth Station - Jesus dies on the Cross
Thirteenth Station - Jesus is taken down from the Cross
Fourteenth Station - Jesus is buried in the sepulcher

A Deeper Understanding of the Liturgy: An Introduction

The Mass is split into four main parts: The Introductory Rites, the Liturgy of the Word, the Liturgy of the Eucharist,
and the Concluding Rites. During the Lenten Season, I will take a deeper look at each of these parts of the Mass.
As I stated in last week’s bulletin, the Introductory Rites play the roles of a beginning, introduction, and preparation.
So let’s start at the beginning.

The Mass begins with a formal procession and singing of a song. We’re not sure when the processions started to
take place, but it is found as early at 701 A.D. in a description of the Papal Mass. The procession is a sign of us be-
coming a liturgical community. We have answered God’s invitation to worship him. The procession and entrance
song open the celebration and give us a sense of community. It brings to light the particular feast or season through
the use of liturgical colors in the vestments and environment.

One of the introductory rites is probably missed by most of the congregation; the veneration of the altar, when the
priest and deacon kiss the altar showing us that the table is one that is holy and sacred to the action which is about
to take place – the sacrifice. When the priest venerates the altar, he does it in the name of all present, making his
prayer one with ours, rising up to the heavens like incense – another part of the entrance procession.

The Signing with the Cross has been how Christians begin prayer for nearly two millennia. It is a blessing of our-
selves and a reminder of our own Baptism. I enjoyed this quote that I found from Romano Guardini, a German theo-
logian:
“When we cross ourselves, let it be with a real sign of the cross…
let us make a large, unhurried sign, from forehead to breast, from shoulder to shoulder,
consciously feeling how it includes the whole of us… It is the holiest of all signs.”

It makes a difference when you think about it in that way. Everything we do at the liturgy is so important. From every
word and action, to every moment of silence, we must let Christ enter into us.

The greeting is a reminder that Christ is present in each of us. “The Lord be with you” the priest says with our re-
sponse, “And also with you,” or soon to be restored to the Latin translation, “And with your spirit.”

Followed by a short introduction, we enter into the Act of Penitence. I don’t know about you, but I know I’m a sinner.
We, as humans, acknowledge the fact that we are guilty of sin. However, we do not dwell on our sinfulness during
the act of penitence, but rather, we focus on the fact that God is ever merciful and forgiving.

On Sundays during the Easter Season, we have the sprinkling of holy water as a sign of our baptism and the forgive-
ness of sins.

After the priest gives us absolution (not sacramental absolution; therefore lacks the efficacy of the Sacrament of
Penance or Reconciliation), we sing the Gloria (outside the Lent and Advent seasons). The first forms of this hymn
are based off of the angels’ song in Bethlehem when Christ was born. Throughout time, it gained a series of accla-
mations, and has a very Trinitarian sense to it. The Gloria is a joyful hymn.

Following the Gloria the priest brings all our prayers and petitions together in what is called the Collect, or opening
prayer. This prayer is that of all our prayers, gathered up by the priest and offered to the Father, through the Son,
and in the Holy Spirit. We all make this prayer our own simply by acclaiming, “Amen!”

We are now in total awareness that we are in God’s presence and are ready to be fed by his Word. We will focus on
the Liturgy of the Word next week. May your Lenten Journey bring you closer to the Easter Joy we are all promised!
