Also known as the Via Dolorosa or Via Crucis, the Stations of the Cross
is one of the most meaningful ways to meditate on the Passion of Our
Lord.
While most chaplets honoring the Way of the Cross which
have medals, this chaplet has finely detailed sculptural images
depicting the individual stations. They are comprised of silver colored
metal. The beads are black onyx which are in keeping with the
solemn nature of the Stations. The black beads represent our sinful
nature and our penance. The red beads on the connectors represent the
Blood of Christ which was shed for us. Appropriately, at the center of
it all is the Sacred Heart of Jesus because it is His heart and His love
for us which led Him to sacrifice Himself for us. The crucifix shows
Mary the Mother of Jesus and John the Apostle at the foot of the cross.
Please note the third and fourth pictures depict 12 of the 14
Stations. This will give you an idea of what they look like. Please
