Stations Of The Cross At Padre Pio National Shrine
Going back to the National Shrine of Padre Pio, I just want to share their very own Station of the Cross statues. Much like what we have seen from Via Dolorosa in Antipolo or the Kamay ni Hesus in Lucban Quezon, Padre Pio National Shrine also features life size images depicting the 14 way of the cross. Not as colorful as the Via Dolorosa though and all images were notably painted in gold.
1st Station : The Last Supper
2nd Station : The Agony In Gethsemani
3rd Station: Jesus Before The Sanedrin 
While heading to the next station, you’ll pass by the St Padre Pio Rectory
5th Station: Jesus receives the Cross 
6th Station: Jesus Falls Under The Weight Of The Cross 
7th Station: Simon of Cyrene Carries the Cross of Jesus 
8th Station: Jesus meets the pious Women of Jerusalem 
9th Station: Jesus Is Nailed To The Cross 
10th Station: The Repentant Thief 
11th Station: Mary And John at the foot of the cross 
12th Station : Jesus dies on the cross
I failed to take a shot of the last two stations though 🙁
wow, all the life size statues are painted in gold!! this is indeed very impressive, they are as good as the colorful ones I would say.. I have heard of “The Last Dinner”, it’s now a world famous painting turned into 3D huh?? and oh, you missed the last two stations?? why?? running out of time?? 🙂
yes… we are running out of time… the mass was about to end and we had to head to our next destination hehe
