Station 12: The Resurrection (Closing and Sending Forth) from St. Cecilia Church
Theme: Jesus Stands with us in our hope and faith
Tema: Jesús está con nosotros en nuestra fe y en la esperanza
Scripture: Luke 23:50-56
Now there was a good and righteous man named Joseph, who, through a member of the council had not agreed to their plan and action. He came from the Jewish town of Arimathea, and he was waiting expectantly for the kingdom of God. This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Then he had taken it down, wrapped it in a linen cloth and laid it in a rock-hewn tomb where no one had ever been laid. It was the day of Preparation, and the Sabbath was beginning. The women who had come with him from Galilee followed behind, and when they had seen the tomb and the way in which his body was laid in it, they returned and prepared spices and ointments.
Litany: The trumpet shall sound
AND THE MYSTERY IS TOLD!
Hope is given
AND DEATH IS OVERCOME!
The cross of pain is a cross of hope
AND THE POWER OF SIN IS BROKEN!
Death is swallowed up in victory…
AND WE SHALL ALL BE CHANGED!
Jesus has been lifted.
AND HE HAS DRAWN ALL PEOPLE TO HIMSELF!
Let us all take up the cross of sorrow and joy. Go in peace.
LET US FOLLOW THE CROSS OF JESUS
