Pray the
Stations of the Cross
as does Pope Benedict
 This Lent, as Holy Week services
are cancelled and our churches empty,
one practice that will bring you intimately
closer to Christ is properly praying of the
Way of the Cross, as Pope Benedict prays it.
In these absorbing pages,
Archbishop Georg Gänswein, longtime
secretary and prayer companion to
Pope Benedict XVI, vividly depicts Jesus’
final, slow, sorrowful passage through
the narrow streets of Jerusalem, out
the city gates, and unto Golgotha,
where our Lord is crucified.
Through stunning meditations
and full-color images for
every station . . .
. . . you’ll come to feel as if you’re
there in Jerusalem on that grim day in
A.D. 33, moving through the crowd
directly witnessing events.
Archbishop Gänswein’s astounding
reflections will invigorate your Stations
of the Cross and awaken in you a love
and sympathy for our Lord greater
than you have ever felt before.

To help you further enter into
Christ's Passion, we are pairing
The Way of the Cross with the
following book.
This penetrating gem of a book,
this miracle of wisdom and insight,
goes behind the Gospels and inside
the riveting events of Christ’s life,
from the Nativity to the Cross.
In a style that has won praise from
Catholics for nearly a century, Fr. A.G.
Sertillanges masterfully unites the
familiar stories of the Gospels to
the particular circumstances
of Christ’s life.
Happy are those who have stood
in the cave in Bethlehem, walked in
prayer the roads that Jesus walked,
and knelt at the tomb of
our Redeemer.
But now those who have never
visited Israel can open the rich pages of
33 Years in the Holy Land and gaze in silence
at the crib in Bethlehem, hear Jesus say to
the dismayed fishermen, “Follow me!,”
and feel the chill of Golgotha as it
looms ever larger in His mind.
Take up these pages as you
move toward Easter.
Let these reflections deepen your
understanding of the life of Christ and
fill you with gratitude for His
tremendous love for you.
