Via Lucis

Stations of the Resurrection

The Via Lucis (Way of Light) is an excellent compliment to the Via Crucis (Way of the Cross).
It consists of 14 meditations contemplating the risen life of Christ through appropriate scriptures and a set of pictures or sculptures e.g. those found in the sanctuary of Our Lady of the Rosary, Pompei, Italy. They are inspired by the spirituality of St John Bosco.

The Stations are:
1. Jesus rises from the Dead
2. The Disciples find the Empty Tomb
3. The Risen Lord appears to Mary Magdalen
4. The Risen Lord appears to Two Disciples on the Road to Emmaus
5. The Risen Lord reveals Himself at the Breaking of Bread
6. The Risen Lord appears to His Disciples
7. The Risen Lord gives Power to Forgive Sins
8. The Risen Lord confirms the Faith of Thomas
9. The Risen Lord meets His Disciples on the Shore of Galilee
10.The Risen Lord confers Primacy on Peter
11.The Risen Lord entrusts to His Disciples the Mission to the World
12.The Risen Lord ascends to the Father
13.Waiting for the Holy Spirit with Mary the Mother of Jesus
14.The Risen Lord sends the Spirit Promised to the Disciples

V We adore you and bless you O Risen Lord
R Because by your death and resurrection you have given life to the world
