Page 2 ST. RITA CATHOLIC CHURCH, DADE CITY, FLORIDA March 12, 2017 Formación de la fe Estaciones del Via Crucis Para los católicos romanos de todo el mundo, las estaciones de la Cruz son sinónimo de Cuaresma, Semana Santa y, sobre todo, Viernes Santo. Esta devoción también se conoce como el "Camino de la Cruz", la "Estaciones de la Cruz ", y la "Via Dolorosa". Conmemora 14 eventos clave en el día de la crucifixión de Cristo. La mayoría se refiere a su última caminata por las calles de Jerusalén, llevando la Cruz. Las Estaciones se originaron en la Europa medieval cuando las guerras impidieron a los peregrinos cristianos visitar la Tierra Santa. Los artistas europeos crearon obras que representan escenas del viaje de Cristo al Calvario. Los fieles instalaron estas esculturas o pinturas a intervalos a lo largo de una ruta de procesión, dentro de la iglesia parroquial o al aire libre. Realizar la devoción significaba caminar toda la ruta, deteniéndose para orar en cada "estación". Hoy en día, las imágenes de las estaciones (o simples cruces que las representan) están en exhibición en casi todas las iglesias católicas. Sirven principalmente como un enfoque para los servicios de adoración de Cuaresma. Pero las estaciones también se pueden realizar en privado, en cualquier época del año, incluso en casa. Muchas organizaciones ofrecen folletos gratuitos o baratos, ilustrados para este propósito. Vía Crucis los miércoles de Cuaresma a las 6:15 PM. en la Iglesia Faith Formation Stations Of The Cross For Roman Catholics throughout the world, the Stations of the Cross are synonymous with Lent, Holy Week and, especially, Good Friday. This devotion is also known as the "Way of the Cross", the "Via Crucis", and the "Via Dolorosa." It commemorates 14 key events on day of Christ's crucifixion. The majority concern His final walk through the streets of Jerusalem, carrying the Cross. The Stations originated in medieval Europe when wars prevented Christian pilgrims from visiting the Holy Land. European artists created works depicting scenes of Christ's journey to Calvary. The faithful installed these sculptures or paintings at intervals along a procession route, inside the parish church or outdoors. Performing the devotion meant walking the entire route, stopping to pray at each "station." Today, images of the Stations (or simple crosses representing them) are on display in almost all Catholic churches. They serve mainly as a focus for Lenten worship services. But the Stations can also be performed privately, at any time of the year, even at home. Many organizations offer free or inexpensive, illustrated pamphlets for this purpose. Stations of the Cross on Fridays of Lent in Church at 5:30 PM. UN ENCUENTRO CON LA NUTRICIÓN Nos encontramos con Evelina en Zambia.
