Week 6 - Suffered, died and was buried

When we say that someone does something with passion, we mean that they do something with great emotion and/or love. Someone might play the piano with great passion. Another might play hockey with alot of passion. When we talk about the passion of Christ, we mean that the suffering( all the humiliation and pain) He felt on the way to His death, was all done out of great love and passion for us.

This week's definition:
PASSION: The suffering and death of Jesus Christ. The Passion shows how much Jesus loved His father and us - enough to die and save us.

This week's prayer: THE STATIONS OF THE CROSS
Pictures do say a thousand words. When you walk through your church, reflect upon the images of the stations. Each station is a step leading to the death of Jesus. Let each picture guide you in prayerful reflection.
