With the Lord there is mercy and fullness of redemption.

 Stations of the Cross
The Stations of the Cross began as the practice of pious pilgrims to Jerusalem who would retrace the final journey of Jesus Christ to Calvary.
Later, for the many who wanted to pass along the same route, but could not make the trip to Jerusalem, a practice developed that eventually took the form of the 14 stations currently found in almost every church.
Similarly, the 150 Hail Marys that were recited for the rosary were an adaptation of the medieval monastic practice of reciting the 150 psalms in the Psalter.
During Lent, on Fridays at 5:30 p.m., there will be Stations of the Cross and Benediction in the sanctuary at St. Anne Catholic Church.

Saints for the Lenten Season
|
|
 St. John Baptist de la Salle
April 7 is the feast day of St. John Baptist de la Salle. He was declared the patron saint of all teachers by Pius VII.
The Christian Brothers, the order he founded, have schools around the world dedicated to teaching all children. He wrote numerous meditations on teaching.
Take a minute to consider these: "Your students are living images of Jesus" and "The way you behave should be a model for those you teach." Take a minute...and learn more about him.
