New blogspot

Welcome to a new resource. Authors are invited to add details of useful resources. Links and brief details would be very helpful.

Stations

I have now visited all 14 of the Stations. http://www.coexisthouse.org.uk/artists-and-places.html Perhaps the most moving are at the Salvation Army HQ next to the Millenium bridge and St Stephen Wallbrook. Marcin Mazur tells me that the Cardinal and Bishop of London will lead a pilgrimage from the Salvation Army HQ at 2 p.m. this coming Wednesday in the middle of Holy Week.  An added bonus the Wallace collection has a little booklet The Crucifixion in art. The National gallery Bassano is not in room 9. The Botticini altarpiece is lovely and still in the Sunley room.

Another exhibition which all should visit is the stations downstairs at St Martin’s in the Fields. You can also see these moving photographs of refugees in the Christianity magazine which is being given away free this month. See another email just sent.

Happy Easter

This Easter, Premier Christianity has embarked on a dramatic new project called The Stations. The Stations is a photography project created in collaboration with creative director, Marksteen Adamson, reflecting on the Stations of the Cross and the suffering of Jesus through images and stories of today's refugees. The traditional ‘stations of the cross’ are a series of 14 images depicting the stages of Christ’s journey on Good Friday. This unique photographic study is a parallel journey retold through the lives and stories of the refugees Marksteen met and befriended in Calais, Lebanon and the UK.

Explore The Stations in this month’s issue of Premier Christianity by requesting a free copy below.

There is also a free exhibition at St Martin-in-the-Fields in London until 10th April. We encourage you to visit this spectacular display of The Stations and bring along your copy of Premier Christianity as a guide. You can also access additional stories, images, resources and ways to respond on The Stations website, including a special Premier Youthwork meeting guide.
