Stations of the Cross original artwork was created by people in Lake Forest Church for our Lent season. --------- During the Turkish occupation of the Holy Land in the late Middle Ages, when pilgrims were prevented from visiting its sacred sites, the custom arose of making replicas of those holy places, where the faithful might come to pray. One of the most popular of these devotions was the “Stations of the Way of the Cross,” which were imitations of the “stations,” or stopping places of prayer on the Via Dolorosa in Jerusalem. By the late sixteenth century the fourteen stations, as we know them today, were erected in almost all Catholic churches.

from Dr. Mike Moses, Lead Pastor… I often call Lake Forest an ‘experimental’ church. One of our greatest experiments is the exploration of what it means to be ‘ancient/future’ Christians. We have the future part down tight – rock and roll worship, ambient video and the like. In preparation for Easter, we are leaning into traditional wisdom of Christians throughout the ages to practice Lent.

Over 75 ladies gathered at Lake Forest Church to learn about the season of Advent and how to make an Advent Wreath. It looks like they had a great time!
