Description

This personal Way of the Cross from the Pope's Worldwide Prayer Network beautifully expresses the deep connection between the Eucharist and the Cross. At each of the fourteen stations, readers are encouraged to offer themselves to the Sacred Heart of Jesus by uniting their sufferings with his in the Eucharist.

The spirituality of the Pope's Worldwide Prayer Network comes to life in meditations on the classic Catholic Lenten devotion, the Stations of the Cross. Recalling the dramatic events of Jesus’ passion and death helps readers enter more fully into the celebration of the Mass that makes these events present in a real way. Focusing on the Sacred Heart of Jesus, the stations affirm how he gave up his body—his very heart—out of love for all.

Originally written by Rev. Will Prospero, S.J. (1965-2014), and edited by Rev. James Kubicki, S.J., former national director of the Apostleship of Prayer (now the Pope's Worldwide Prayer Network), these stations are already beloved by followers of the ministry. Stations of the Cross with the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus is beautifully illustrated with artwork of the Stations of the Cross located in the School Sisters of St. Francis’s St. Joseph Chapel in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

  • “A powerful understanding of the Eucharist.”

    “Rev. William Prospero offers a powerful understanding of the Eucharist as Christ’s irresistible attentiveness to our sufferings and shows how Christ invites us, through prayer, to be attentive to his own sufferings. In these Stations of the Cross he unites them in a creative and deeply personal way.”

    Msgr. Charles Murphy
    Author of Reclaiming Francis

  • “Encourages us toward personal union with Christ.”

    “Rev. William Prospero’s sacrificial witness did not end at death. Throughout these meditations, he continues to encourage us toward personal union with Christ nailed to endless crosses throughout the world and to ‘hear his voice and sense the beating of his heart’—our salvation!”

    Sr. Joseph Andrew Bogdanowic, O.P.
    Dominican Sisters of Mary, Mother of the Eucharist

  • “Rev. William Prospero lived the Stations of the Cross.”

    “Rev. William Prospero lived the Stations of the Cross. These reflections give us a glimpse of how he united himself to Jesus—and they give us the means to do the same.”

    Ed Hogan
    Director
