STATIONS   OF  THE  CROSS

SOME  1000 YEARS AGO

It took the longest time –

a long time ago – for folks to move

these massive stone crosses

to their sacred  places in Ireland.

A lot of people had to put their

shoulders, muscles, brains,

their skills into use to move these

mighty crosses – to their Calvary.

With logs and ropes - they moved

these massive slabs of stone into

place  - I’m sure inwardly screaming -

“Why  here and not back there?”

I’m sure  some also said, “Christ

Almighty help those who see this

cross to get support in carrying

their daily crosses. Oh yes!  Amen.”
