About the event
On Palm Sunday, join us HERE for a reflection building on the images and prayers in Stages of the Cross in time of war in Gaza.
Along with our friends at Christian Aid  we hope to collaborate with Christian students from Bethlehem to include praise, prayers, and readings in Arabic and English.
Stations of the Cross is a practice of Christian devotion that began in the 14th century. Christian pilgrims to Jerusalem from 16th century onwards walked the Via Dolorosa, retracing the steps of Jesus as handed down by tradition.
This year there will not be many pilgrims walking the well-worn path because of the ongoing war in Gaza. Yet many of all faiths are walking their own Via Dolorosa as the war brings great suffering.
Palestinian Christians cry out to Christians worldwide: ‘Is it nothing to you who pass by?’ Lamentations 1:12.
Join them  in prayer and reflection, and in seeking a just peace.
