The Way of the Cross

A wonderful prayer booklet to use for praying the Stations of the Cross. These are the same prayers we used in grade school every Friday.

Catholic way of the cross is easily readable and understandable. Use it often

The language is a bit archaic and there are editions that have contemporary language. A beautiful reflection on the love of Jesus for us and our expression of love for him.

For Penance I was asked to pray the Stations of the Cross. This is so much more meaningful to me than three Hail Marys and an Our Father. The words are so beautiful.

I was looking for a Stations of the Cross book, and was totally and pleasantly surprised when I opened it. It is exactly like the one I used when I was in school. I am so glad I got it on my kindle reader: now I will have it with me all the time. Has other prayers and meditation also. I really love this book!!

The parishioners of our parish have asked to return to a more traditional form of the Stations of the Cross. We have been using  John Paul II's Biblical Way of the Cross  for at least two years now, but these do not follow the stations in the traditional format (as they are mounted on the Church walls), but rather in a format that's supplied by the Gospels. The people have grown tired of this and prefer the other. This Saint Alphonsus de Liguori edition is about as traditional as people may want. It was initially published in 1903. So, anyone alive today would remember these from when they were growing up.

There is an updated version (in modern english) available but, unfortunately not in kindle format. Either way, a great devotation.

Have been saying this prayer every Lent for ages. Needed another booklet. The only thing that ruins St. Alphonsus' Way is that a versicle was added from the Franciscan's to increase devotion. I whited it out. St. Alphonsus needs nothing else, the Way is increasing devotion all by itself.

Beautiful little book. Perfect for younger children just learning about their faith. Written in simplified terms

The book is written in the language with vivid expressions and explanations with reference to our daily life. I loved reading it

Gifted to an 8 and 10 year old Highly Recommend
