Faithful follow Way of the Cross in Ansonia

ANSONIA - The annual Good Friday Way of the Cross procession was held on Main Street today. It started at Veterans Park next to City Hall at noon, and ended at the Ansonia Armory, 5 State St. 
Participants in the ecumenical service stopped to pray together at seven stations along the way. 

The procession symbolizes the last hours of the life of Jesus Christ before his crucifixion by the Romans.
