Praying the Stations: A Way of Reconciliation for Teens

Rating:
Summary: Helpful for Religious Educators
Review: In a short but positive little volume, Colleen Rainone has given religious educators a tool that is helpful for a number of reasons. First, it utilizes the devotion of the Stations of the Cross, meeting the needs of our students who desire to know more about the older customs of our faith community. But it also puts "the Stations" in the context of the need for reconciliation. Further, it accomplishes this by drawing upon the concerns and struggles of teens. For all of these reasons, Catholic educators who work with adolescents would do well to keep a supply of these booklets around. I recommend using this resource with students in grades 7-12.
