Introduction
Greetings Gente Puente!
In today’s episode my husband Chris shares with us about the Latin
American tradition of the Live Way of the Cross on Good Friday. “The Live Way of the
Cross is a wonderful experience of Catholics being able to immerse themselves
into the mystery of Scripture, particularly that journey of Jesus, those last
moments of Jesus’ life on earth in preparation for Easter.”

For today’s show I invited my husband, Deacon Chris Gutiérrez,
to return to the show because he had a very successful experience of bringing
the Hispanic tradition of celebrating a Live Way of the Cross to a parish here
in KY. As he shares, this popular devotion
was a very important part of his faith life growing up in Mexico and during his
years in seminary there. He shares about
what worked well, how he overcame the obstacles and encourages ministers to
consider bringing this tradition to their areas.
