Good Friday, 19 April 2019, 10:00am
The Way of the Cross begins at one of Melbourneā??s oldest churches, St Francis' Church (326 Lonsdale Street, Corner of Lonsdale and Elizabeth Streets).
From there the pilgrimage makes its way via various churches and other stations up
to St Patrick's Cathedral and the German Lutheran Trinity church, then back down to
St Michael's, which is the 9th station, at 11:30am/11:45am.
This is in commemoration of Jesusā?? journey from the Last Supper to the crucifixion and resurrection. All are welcome to join in for the whole or any part of the Way.
The journey usually takes up to 2 Ā½ hours, and will end around 12:15pm, at St Paulā??s Cathedral, corner Swanston and Flinders Streets.Ā
