    So Happy with my Booklet

    Posted by N Beth Michitsch on 8th Mar 2021

    I received this booklet last Friday just in time to watch the Stations of the Cross on Catholic TV network. It was exactly the one I wanted. We have been going to stations for the whole 60 years we have been married, and always used this version. Thank you for making my Lent much richer!

    Beautiful! And just as I remembered it. Really gives you an appreciation for what was done to save our souls by Jesus Christ.

    I like this version and was happy to find the books online. I miss this worship during Lent since the onset of the Coronavirus.

    I’m stuck at...

    Posted by Betty on 28th Mar 2020

    Home amongst the corona virus outbreak. All Masses and public gatherings canceled. This is the book my church uses and I ordered it to receive it extremely fast! Thank you St. Jude Shop! Y’all are the best! Stay safe and God bless!

    Perfect

    Posted by Sandra Ippolito on 21st Mar 2020

    This is the same book my parish uses. I decided to purchase my own so I did not have to use a shared copy. (Before churches closed down for virus) Now I'm good for solitary worship.

    Traditional Stations of the Cross

    Posted by Rick P on 22nd Apr 2019

    Each station contains an Old Testament and New Testament reading, plus a prayer. It easily fits within your pocket to keep with you throughout Lent.

    Just like I remembered

    Posted by Kris on 6th Feb 2018

    I was so excited when my books arrived! It looks exactly the way that I remembered it when I went to the Stations of the Cross with my Mom many years ago. And now I can share with my daughter. Thank you!
