This Friday, April 12 at 6:30 p.m., Holy Trinity Church will present its Stations of the Cross with live music and reflection from a modern perspective inside the candlelit church.

This inspiring event combines the traditional stations with contemporary songs and a short reflection connecting Christ’s final journey to the Cross with the challenges we face each day in our world. Sixteen contemporary songs by artists such as Billy Joel, Bryan Adams, Josh Groban, Eric Clapton, Our Lady Peace and others follow each station and reflection. The songs are performed live by Holy Trinity’s own talented musicians and vocalists. The music brings out the human emotion of each station in Jesus’ suffering, death, and resurrection.

This is the 15th year of the presentation. Each year, new songs are added and reflections are updated to bring a fresh perspective to the event. Five musicians and vocalists make the music come alive. The group consists of Christina Donovan, flute, bass guitar, cello, violin and vocals; Tom Donovan, lead vocals; Evonne Hennebery, keyboard; Marie Sedota, guitar, violin and vocals; and Nick Siracuse, drums. New this year, the artwork of Paul Abate will be incorporated into the program.

Past attendees have called this event “…beautiful! Amazing singers and musicians, and so reverent.” Others have reported that “I’ve gone every year for the last several, and wouldn’t miss it for anything. It sends shivers down my spine. A moving and prayerful experience. I would urge everyone not to miss this!” Still others said, “When I attended last year, a few months after losing my husband, I was deeply moved and my tears freely flowed in the darkened church. I attended again this year and was equally touched and inspired. Thank you for a program that bridges denominations and speaks to the heart.”

Come and experience Stations of the Cross as you have never experienced it before. This event is free and open to everyone of all ages and faiths. Holy Trinity is located 1032 Central Avenue in Dunkirk.
