HERMISTON — A dramatic presentation that portrays the events leading up to the crucifixion of Jesus Christ is being staged by Our Lady of Angels Catholic Church.

“Living Stations of the Cross” is Friday, April 7. Starting at noon in the church parking lot, 565 W. Hermiston Ave., it travels several blocks toward the Hermiston Butte. For more than two decades, youths and other church members have acted out scenes from Stations of the Cross — a series of images that portray Jesus on the day of his crucifixion.

Reader boards set up at the beginning of each scene will show which Station of the Cross is portrayed. The bi-lingual presentation also includes the singing of hymns and prayers.

The presentation offers a powerful visual reminder of the biblical story of Easter — culminating with a scene depicting Christ’s death on the cross on top of the butte. With uneven ground leading up to the final scenes, people are encouraged to wear sturdy shoes.
