Stations of the Cross 07

The Seventh Station shows Jesus collapsing to the ground a second time, weakened and pressed by suffering. The Stations of the Cross originated during the Crusades when pilgrims retraced Christ’s steps through Jerusalem. As travel became dangerous, faithful Christians reproduced these sacred journeys in Europe with outdoor markers. By the 18th century, Stations were placed inside churches, offering a spiritual pilgrimage through Christ’s Passion. This printable coloring page invites children to reflect on perseverance and Christ’s love. Ideal for Lent, Holy Week, and faith formation programs for young Catholics and their families.
