Grand Station of the Cross

Grand Station of the Cross of the Parish of the Last Supper of Our Lord. Good Friday, March 29, 2013. From St. Joseph, passes through the villages of Casimiro, Emapalico, URCI Townhouses, SMK, Manuela 4E/Integrated and Manila Times Village.

Spiritual significance

The object of the Stations is to help the faithful to make a spiritual pilgrimage of prayer, through meditating upon the chief scenes of Christ's sufferings and death. It has become one of the most popular devotions for Roman Catholics, and is often performed in a spirit of reparation for the sufferings and insults that Jesus endured during His Passion.[6]

In his encyclical letter, Miserentissimus Redemptor, on reparations, Pope Pius XI called Acts of Reparation to Jesus Christ a duty for Catholics and referred to them as "some sort of compensation to be rendered for the injury" with respect to the sufferings of Jesus.[7] Pope John Paul II referred to Acts of Reparation as the "unceasing effort to stand beside the endless crosses on which the Son of God continues to be crucified".[8](en.wikipedia.org)
