Way of the Cross: Journey with Jesus and refugees

Sign up to our Lent emails
Lent is a time of repentance and renewal for Christians. It is a time when we turn away from our sinfulness and recommit ourselves to following Jesus.
As we approach the season of Lent, JRS invites you to receive our regular emails with resources for prayer and reflection supporting our shared Lenten observances of Fasting, Alms and Prayer.
The Way of the Cross
Praying the Stations of the Cross is a traditional way of praying during Lent. We pray this familiar prayer to be with Jesus Christ who walked this journey, carrying the cross, the instrument of his death, out of love and commitment to us.
We have developed these Stations of the Cross meditations to aid your prayer during Lent and Holy Week. You can use this resource as a Parish Group, school, as a family, or individually.
Advent 2020
We have teamed up with St Beuno’s Jesuit Spirituality Centre to create an online Advent Calendar of prayer and reflection as we prepare for Christmas.
We invite you to join us, and our refugee friends, as we journey together throughout the season of Advent.
