Stations of the Cross
;)
WMC: April 2020
Tuesday Afternoon House Group were meant to be visiting St Mary's Convent on 7 April in for reflection and prayer at each of the Stations of the Cross. Although this visit is now cancelled you may be interested to look at the Convent's web-site where they have a prayer and meditation on each of the stations. The carvings were made by Mother Maribel, a member of their community, and she took over 27 years to complete them.
You can find the reflections on this link: Stations of the Cross.
The Methodist Modern Art Collection also have some aluminium castings by Frank Roper, which can be seen on this link: Frank Roper.
