The Second Station: Jesus takes up His Cross

These outdoor, tile-mosaic Stations of the Cross were designed
by our own Artist Sisters of the Monastery.
Who would believe what we have heard? To whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed? He grew up like a sapling before him, like a shoot from the parched earth; there was in him no stately bearingn to make us look at him, no appearance that would attract us to him. He was rejected and avoided by men, a man of suffering, accustomed to infirmity, one of those from whom men turn away, and we held him in no esteem. Isaiah 53: 1-3

Jesus said, "Whoever does not take up his cross and follow me is not worthy of me. Those who find their life will lose it and those who lose their life for my sake will find it."
Matthew 10: 38-39
