The Way of the Cross with Pope Francis
From the Way of the Cross meditations for Good Friday 2022, led by Pope Francis

The Scriptural Stations of the Cross were made popular by St. John Paul II when he led the Way of the Cross at the Colosseum in Rome on Good Friday in 1991. The reflections written in this booklet were led by Pope Francis in 2022. They are not a replacement of the traditional stations, but are offered as an alternative way of reflecting more deeply on the scriptural accounts of Christ’s passion.
