Praying the Stations of the Cross

Today I took Baby Hulk and No David to pray the Stations of the Cross.  We went to Our Lady of Lourdes Parish, a beautiful church off of 290.  There is a grotto and outdoor Stations.  We went last year, and the children loved it.  Last night, I decided we were going again to pray outside.  If I waited until the entire family was available, it wouldn’t work out.  My hope is that my parents and my brother’s family can join my entire family one day so we can pray together.  I know I would enjoy that as would the children.

I realize that taking pictures of my kids while praying is the very definition of contrived, but I had to do it.  They were just so sweet and innocent in prayer.  I didn’t force the shots, just allowed them to pray and snapped photos as we moved from Station to Station.   Basically, this means I’ll be saying the Stations tonight on my own.

    Ok so I think I meant Kobra? I thought Baby H was the youngest boy. Nope. 🙂

    Great pictures! It’s been almost 50 years since I prayed the stations of the cross. I was raised Catholic but now practice my Christian beliefs as a Baptist. As I look at these pictures…. wow….how rich, how pure. Why can’t all these so called christian religions understand… One God, One Christ, one sacrifice, one blood?
    Bless your heart,
    thanks for the reminder.
