Description
Depictions of the fourteen Stations of the Cross are many, from ornate sculptures, bas reliefs, stained glass, mosaics, and paintings, to those more simple in their design and presentation. At Saint Peter the Apostle Roman Catholic Church in Libertytown, MD, Stations of the Cross are presented outdoors leading to the Grotto of the Immaculate Conception located on the grounds adjacent to the church. Each Station's image is mounted as a wooden placard attached to an upright wooden beam, protected from above by an angled wooden frame. Rough-hewn nails placed in the shape of the Cross are embedded on the placard board above the image. A simple design in wood surrounded by trees, fitting for a carpenter's son. The Fifth Station vividly shows the heart of Simon, the Cyrenian, pressed into service to carry the Cross behind an exhausted Jesus on His way to be crucified on Calvary (Luke 23, Verse 26). Image = 2018-07-04 to 11-04 St Peters Grotto Stn5 655-669 E-D M C1 FT YG-5 PSP.jpg.
65% of all profits from the sale of this image will be contributed to Saint Peter Roman Catholic Church in Libertytown, MD, in support of men and women of the Parish called by the Holy Spirit to a vocation to the priesthood and sisterhood.
