About The Way Of The Cross With St. John The Apostle

Product Description Walk with Jesus; be with Jesus; speak with Jesus. No need simply to think about what Christ did for you and me. The Stations of the Cross are an ancient way to remember the events of Good Friday as Jesus suffered for us all. The Way of the Cross with St. John the Apostle looks at this extraordinary event from the view of Jesus’ best friend and the youngest apostle. John supports the Blessed Virgin Mary as they watch the hope of the world give his life for the people. A modern look at a two-thousand-year-old reality, these Stations of the Cross will help us pray the Passion of Christ and carry the Cross with him. The text is by author, Msgr. Eric Barr and is richly illustrated with woodcuts by noted artist, Sr. Mary Grace Thul, O.P. About the Author About the Author and Illustrator MONSIGNOR ERIC R, BARR, S.T.L., is a Roman Catholic Priest of the Diocese Of Rockford, Illinois and the author of this version of the Stations.  He is a noted speaker on Catholic issues and Celtic Spirituality.  A pastor of several parishes as well as a former Vicar General and Chancellor of the diocese, Msgr. Barr has long sought to provide updated Catholic devotions for the faithful to help them come closer to Christ. SISTER MARY GRACE THUL, O.P. is the illustrator of these Stations.  Sister had a summer internship at the Cincinnati Art Museum, taught art in the Cincinnati Public Schools and established a custom art business with two colleagues before deciding to enter the monastery of cloistered Dominican Nuns in Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1962.  The fine arts have always been greatly esteemed and utilized by the Order of Preachers (Dominicans) as an expression of its ministry to praise, to bless, and to preach.  Her over forty years as a Dominican Nun have provided opportunities to broaden her use of various art media including sculpture, painting, woodcarving and printmaking in giving expression to religious and scriptural themes. Sister is an award-winning artist and has received commissions for many liturgical events and places of worship.
