GOOD FRIDAY 2023 – Holy See Press Office: “Due to the intense cold of these days, Pope Francis will follow tonight’s Via Crucis from Casa Santa Marta, joining the prayers of those who will gather with the Diocese of Rome at the Colosseum.”
CARRYING THE CROSS
As we ponder many times throughout this day the Passion and Death of Our Savior, Jesus Christ, how many times do we try to really imagine Him carrying a heavy cross, having undergone a brutal beating and being crowned with thorns? Bearing all of this, accepting all of this pain and anguish for our sins and our salvation!
We know Jesus has helped each of us carry our crosses. Do we try to help him carry his burden?
This is one of my favorite photos of all times! I do not remember where I saw it and would love to give credit where credit is due.
