The Stations
by Edmund Sullivan
Stations became important in Ireland because of England's strict 18th Century penal laws about Catholic worship. Lone priests traveled by horseback from station to station around moutains, through forests and into secluded places to say Mass for worshippers. Word-of-mouth would alert the faithful to a priest's arrival. Such privation created a hunger and love for the Eucharist and Mass that continues in Ireland to this day.
