Stations of the Cross - The Way of the Cross is the salvific journey completed by Christ the Redeemer for mankind. For Mother Maria Celeste Crostarosa, it is the coming of the God made Man to Jerusalem; it is the Loving Jesus who gives Himself unconditionally in obedience to the Father; it is the delivery and offering of Christ who entrusts Himself to the Father in the spirit in a trinitarian and salvific event for the salvation of the world.

STATIONS OF THE CROSS - Venerable Maria Celeste Crostarosa.

You are invited to meditate on the Stations of the Cross as envisaged by Ven Maria Celeste
