The Stations of the Cross – Preschool Style

This week the boys participated in the Stations of the Cross at school. (Remember, they are attending a Catholic school.) During the Stations of the Cross, we all processed around the playground, stopping every few yards to listen to Sister Tere (nun and preschool teacher) retell how Jesus walked through the streets, carrying his cross, on the way to be crucified. Fortunately, the retelling concluded with Jesus’ resurrection. The procession included Jesus with his cross, Mary, Simon, a group of mourners, Roman Soldiers, and on-lookers (the rest of the preschool). In the pictures you can see Isaiah dressed as a Roman Solider. The boys in his class were all chosen to be Roman Soldiers. All the mothers got together to figure out how to make the costumes out of cardboard. Micah’s class waved purple and white flags as they walked along at the back of the procession.
