El sábado 2 de agosto, Pedro y yo fuimos a pasear en las ex-haciendas del valle de Villa de Reyes (San Luis Potosí, México). Comenzamos en la Ex-Hacienda Gogorrón y ahí nos quedamos varias horas. En este lugar se filmó una buena parte de la película de "La Leyenda del Zorro". En esta fotografía se aprecia el interior de la casa principal, también llamada "Casa de los Patrones". Después hicimos el resto del recorrido por La Ventilla, Carranco, Bledos y Calderón (nos dicen que nos faltó Pardo); pero fue muy rápido, así que pronto regresaremos. Fue un día esplendoroso, con cielo azul salpicado de nubes y los paisajes bellísimos por las recientes lluvias. Logramos ubicar todas las haciendas gracias a un croquis que teníamos y a GoogleMaps.

Stations of the Cross (or Way of the Cross; in Latin, Via Crucis; also called the Via Dolorosa or Way of Sorrows, or simply, The Way) refers to the depiction of the final hours (or Passion) of Jesus, and the devotion commemorating the Passion. The tradition as chapel devotion began with St. Francis of Assisi and extended throughout the Roman Catholic Church in the medieval period. It may be done at any time, but is most commonly done during the Season of Lent, especially on Good Friday and on Friday evenings during Lent. The Stations of the Cross originated in pilgrimages to Jerusalem. A desire to reproduce the holy places in other lands seems to have manifested itself at quite an early date. At the monastery of Santo Stefano at Bologna a group of connected chapels was constructed as early as the 5th century, by St. Petronius, Bishop of Bologna, which was intended to represent the more important shrines of Jerusalem. The devotion of the Via Dolorosa, for which there have been a number of variant routes in Jerusalem, was probably developed by the Franciscans after they were granted administration of the Christian holy places in Jerusalem in 1342. The earliest use of the word “stations,” as applied to the accustomed halting-places in the Via Sacra at Jerusalem, occurs in the narrative of an English pilgrim, William Wey, who visited the Holy Land in the mid-15th century, and described pilgrims following the footsteps of Christ to the cross. In 1521 a book called Geystlich Strass was printed with illustrations of the stations in the Holy Land. During the 15th and 16th centuries the Franciscans began to build a series of outdoor shrines in Europe to duplicate their counterparts in the Holy Land. The number of stations varied between eleven and thirty. The object of the Stations is to help the faithful to make a spiritual pilgrimage of prayer, through meditating upon the chief scenes of Christ's sufferings and death. It has become one of the most popular devotions for Roman Catholics. In the Roman Catholic tradition, the meditation is often performed in a spirit of reparation for the sufferings and insults that Jesus endured during His Passion. The Stations themselves are usually a series of 14 pictures or sculptures depicting the following scenes: 1. Jesus is condemned to death 2. Jesus is given His cross 3. Jesus falls the first time 4. Jesus meets His Mother 5. Simon of Cyrene carries the cross 6. Veronica wipes the face of Jesus 7. Jesus falls the second time 8. Jesus meets the daughters of Jerusalem 9. Jesus falls the third time 10. Jesus is stripped of His garments 11. Crucifixion: Jesus is nailed to the cross 12. Jesus dies on the cross 13. Jesus' body is removed from the cross (Deposition or Lamentation) 14. Jesus is laid in the tomb and covered in incense. Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center is located in the heart of Greater Cincinnati and sits on 13.1 acres of landscaped property in a residential area of Norwood, Ohio. This structure, originally built in 1920 under the direction of Archbishop Henry Moeller as a major seminary, has now become a Marian center.
