THE FIRST STATION 
JESUS IS CONDEMNED TO DEATH   

We adore You, O Christ, and we bless You. Because by Your Holy Cross You have redeemed the world

“I am ashamed, O Lord, to stand before Your Holy Face, for I am so unlike You. So greatly did You suffer for me during the scourging that this alone would have caused Your death, but it was the will of the Heavenly Father and His sentence that You should die on the Cross. And am I finding it hard to bear with the trifling faults and human frailties of my family.  You, in Your Mercy, did pour out Your Blood for me, and I find any sacrifice or act of kindness to my neighbours a burden. You, with an ineffable patience, and in silence, did bear the pain of the scourging, and I groan and complain if I am to suffer for You a difficulty or contempt from my neighbour”. 

MERCIFUL LORD, 
HELP ME TO FOLLOW YOU WITH TRUST  


Jesus Christ crucified, have mercy on us.
