Youth Representatives and Ambassadors of Development and Peace — Caritas Canada from Alberta, the Northwest Territories and Ontario have come together this Lent 2026 to pray and meditate through the Solidarity Way of the Cross, and they invite everyone to join them. When: Friday, March 27, 2026 at 7:00 p.m. ET Where: Online via Zoom The Way of the Cross is an invitation to bear witness to the suffering, death, resurrection, and glory of Jesus Christ. It is through this Paschal Mystery that God chose to create hope. Our witness to this hope is needed now more than ever in a world where hope is in short supply. The hope found in the Way of the Cross is not a naïve or passive hope. Nor is it the hope of the powerful or the privileged. It is a hope that requires much to be created. It is a hope born of sacrifice. God creates hope by joining us in our human suffering and weakness. All the pain and sin of the world were taken into the body of Jesus and nailed to the cross. This supreme sacrifice creates hope for a better world because its logic is not death, but life. REGISTER NOW
