✝️ GOOD FRIDAY STATIONS OF THE CROSS
Friday, April 3 @ 10 AM
Starting Location: Cribs for Kids (5450 Second Ave.)
This prayer pilgrimage will stop at various sites in Hazelwood to reflect on
the continued suffering, war, poverty, violence, and injustice today. Because we believe that the cross leads us to resurrection, we vow not to turn our eyes away from suffering, and instead commit ourselves to ushering in new life. Flyer >>
