Stations of the Cross: Station 1 (Shana McCauley)

Station 1 - Jesus is Condemned to Death

"If Jesus were traveling the streets of Oregon, what would he notice? As he walked through the acres of blighted forests from wildfires, would he weep?"

This series of weekly audio reflections will help you learn to link the divine with your daily life. How might Jesus’ final hours feel different when juxtaposed with a walk in the neighborhood, or in a quiet corner at home, or while driving to pick up take-out? Pause a few times a week for scripture, prayers, and music led by Trinity clergy and priests from across the Diocese of Oregon.
