Friday of the Fifth Week of Lent – Stations of the Cross at St. Joseph’s Lake
This week’s prayer experience was filmed in a place that may be familiar to those who have enjoyed the walking paths around the lakes: the Stations of the Cross at St. Joseph’s Lake. Vice President for Mission Engagement and Church Affairs, Fr. Gerry Olinger, C.S.C., leads today’s prayer along with members of the Notre Dame Alumni Association staff. The meditations for this prayer are from You Have Redeemed the World, a set of reflections published by Ave Maria Press, written Holy Cross religious from around the world and edited by Fr. Andrew Gawrych, C.S.C. and Fr. Kevin Grove, C.S.C.
Lord Jesus, your cross is our only hope. The love that compelled you to take the steps to Calvary is the very love that conquered sin and death forever through your glorious resurrection. Each time we follow the way of your passion, we learn again that you redeem our steps, pick us up from our falls, and unite our sacrifices and sufferings with yours in the transforming power of your cross. Led and redeemed by you, our savior, may we die only to rise with you in glory. Amen.
