Thousands of believers from across the city joined a solemn procession over the Brooklyn Bridge on Friday morning for the19th annual Good Friday Way of the Cross procession. The prayerful event emulates Christ’s walk to his crucifixion on Calvary, with reflections at five stations along the way.

Sponsored by the Movement of Communion and Liberation, the procession began at St. James Cathedral-Basilica in Downtown Brooklyn, moved across the Brooklyn Bridge to City Hall and Ground Zero, and concluded at St. Peter’s Church in Lower Manhattan.
