The Stations of the Cross Re-visualized

Trinity Episcopal Church - St. Louis, Missouri

 

Station 11
Jesus is Nailed to the Cross

"The passage from Lamentations 1 comes to mind in thinking about the nailing of Jesus to the cross: “Is it nothing to you, all ye who pass by? Behold and see if there be any sorrow like unto my sorrow…” While these words had meaning to Jeremiah as he saw Jerusalem sacked and destroyed, they have meaning to us today as we look upon Jesus nailed to the cross. Viewers are asked to reflect on the meaning of this cruel event as they see their faces in the mirrored glass."
