Stations of the Cross at Holy Family Parish
A beautiful and rich tradition in the Catholic Church is to walk with Jesus on His way to the crucifixion every Friday during Lent.  It is a difficult walk, a humbling walk, a walk that reminds us of His immeasurable love for us and the great sacrifice that He made for each one of us. 
​

Live Stations of the Cross
  • Wednesdays of Lent, 6:30pm, St. Peter Church with the Knights of Columbus
  • Fridays of Lent, 6:00pm, Sacred Heart Church
  • Fridays of Lent, 7:00pm, St. Joseph (Spanish)
The Stations of the Cross Online
The Knights of Columbus, Council #1542 in LaPorte, have provided an online Stations of the Cross.
Una hermosa y rica tradición en la Iglesia Católica es caminar con Jesús en su camino a la crucifixión cada viernes durante la Cuaresma.  Es una caminata difícil, una caminata de humildad, una caminata que nos recuerda su inconmensurable amor por nosotros y el gran sacrificio que hizo por CADA UNO DE NOSOTROS.  Los Caballeros de Colón, Consejo #1542 en LaPorte, han hecho posible que participemos en esta caminata este año.  Han filmado el Vía Crucis en inglés y en español y están invitados a participar aquí.  Tomen un momento en sus viernes en esta temporada de Cuaresma para caminar el camino de la cruz con Nuestro Señor. ​
