Alternative Via Crucis
Has anyone used such an alternative in their parishes or participated in one elsewhere? If so, what has been the response? Are people attached to the "traditional" Stations? 1. Christ's Prayer and Agony in the garden 2. Christ betrayed by Judas and arrested 3. Christ condemned by the Sanhedrin 4. Christ denied by Peter 5. Christ judged by Pilate 6. Christ scourged and crowned with thorns 7. Christ burdened with the cross 8. Christ assisted by Simon of Cyrene 9. Christ meets the women of Jerusalem 10. Christ crucified 11. Christ promises the kingdom to the Good Thief 12. Christ on the cross; the Mother; and the disciple 13. Christ dies on the cross 14. Christ taken down from the cross and laid in the tomb Pope John Paul II has used these "stations" publicly at the Vatican. Perhaps you believe the Stations shouldn't be tampered with. If so, why? Any experience of musical settings of Stations this past Lent, and if so, what were your opinions?
