Station 13
Jesus is Taken Down from the Cross
Jesus is Taken Down from the Cross
Artist: Alethea Keamy '23
We too carry Jesus' cross on the difficult journey of solving the issues that plague our society. We can make a similar connection to this station. As Jesus is taken from the agony of the crucifixion, Mary comes to His aid. She cleanses the blood and soot, restoring His dignity. Even while we work to better ourselves for the future, we are constantly reminded of the dignity stripped from the "crucified" around us. In addition to improving ourselves and our actions, we are called to take action in recognizing the dignity of those who are and who have been crucified for their beliefs or discriminated against for their sexual identity, race, class, or gender.
