Multiple parishes across the Diocese of Owensboro took part in an annual tradition of live Stations of the Cross throughout Holy Week 2026. The Stations of the Cross are a devotion that often takes place during Lent and prayerfully journey through the 14 stations of Christ’s Passion prior to his death on the cross. Here are several photo highlights provided by the faithful of the diocese.
