FIFTH STATION
THE CROSS IS LAID ON SIMON OF CYRENE
A CHILD'S FIRE ENGINE CRUSHED AND A MODEL HOME IN FLAMES
The Rev. Thomas Faulkner, Artist

 

 

New York City, 9/11. It is a warm and sunny September morning. There is comfort in the known environment, the familiar faces, even in that which is commonplace. Suddenly the sky rains fire down upon you and nothing is ever the same again. It is a warm and sunny day in Jerusalem where you have gone to conduct business and suddenly two soldiers from the occupying forces require you to carry the cross of a condemned man to the site of crucifixion. Nothing is ever the same again.
