Hermano Juancito has a nice post up describing how the people of Santa Rosa de Copán in Honduras are remembering Jesus' death and resurrection as we approach Easter.
Each station of the cross (first half) reflects some aspect of their everyday life (second half). Here are a few of this year's themes:
1. Jesus is condemned to death - Maladministration of Justice
6. Veronica wipes the face of Jesus - Corruption at every level
7. Jesus calls the second time - Violence, hired assassins, drug-trafficking, insecurity
9. Jesus falls the third time - Coup d’état, polarization, reconciliation
12. Jesus dies on the cross - Attacks on life (Climate change, Mining, human rights, [disappearances, assassinations, abortion, drug-trafficking])
13. Jesus is taken down from the Cross - Those who have fallen in the struggle
15. Jesus is raised from the dead - The resurrection of the people
