Stations of St. Paul’s

The Stations of St. Paul’s, modeled after the Stations of the Cross, are a liturgical and art installation created by artist Janelle Washingtonas paper-cut banners. Each station depicts a specific moment in St. Paul’s history with a focus on race relations. These 14 moments were chosen to represent the whole sweep of the congregation’s 175-year history.

A booklet of prayers with historical notes accompanies the Stations of St. Paul’s. For each station, there is a reading that describes an historical incident or situation, followed by a prayer that acknowledges the effect of the congregation’s action or position, laments or gives thanks, and asks for forgiveness and renewal.
