Stations of the Light (Via Lucis)

Fridays Evening Devotion at 6:00pm.

The Stations of the Light, or Via Lucis, is a beautiful Easter devotion celebrated during the fifty days of the Resurrection. It traces the scriptural encounters with the Risen Lord—from the empty tomb to the outpouring of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost. This journey invites us to deepen our relationship with Christ, to enter more fully into the Paschal Mystery, and to rejoice in the triumph of His Resurrection.
