Newly emerged Perth Catholic Productions has launched its first offering to the Catholic world with its Stations of the Cross CD and tape.

Its producers under Rosary Evangelization Australia are well known for their internationally acclaimed Rosary for Children and Rosary for Youth CD's and tapes.

This first offering by Perth Catholic Productions of the Stations of the Cross with its 15 stations, is certain to be equally as well received because it is quite unique in its fresh presentation and woven through with original music and lyrics.

A Catholic priest takes the listener through the meditations which are thought provoking, and although conscience piercing, they are hope filled. In accompanying the young female narrator through the Walk of the Way, I feel Jesus' agony as he falls three times with an already bruised and brutally assaulted body, but rises up again because of His commitment to do the will of the Father.

This, in order to accomplish the sacrifice of His innocence for our sinfulness by the final indignity, injustice, and total giving in excruciating pain in his last drop of blood and final breath to atone for my sins to God His Father. In taking part in the Way of the Cross so realistically but gently presented, I became increasingly conscious of all the times I had personally nailed Jesus to the Cross with sins committed throughout my life, and keenly aware that those who drove in the nails, were no more guilty than I have been. It is beneficial for one's conscience to listen to the Stations of the Cross because society would lead us in a different direction than that which our Catholic faith dictates.

A society which permits and indeed encourages us to do anything we want to - if we can get away with it - and with society's frighteningly slipped standards, we usually can.

The listener is given a whole range of areas highlighting everyday

failings which we regard as being acceptable, but which we are reminded of, are not in God's eyes.

The Stations of the Cross is non-accusative but nevertheless points out the obvious disparity in our doings and dealings with what God expects of us.

Significantly, the priest shows how Christ's tottering, staggering, falling and incredibly painful rising to His feet under the weight of the Cross, equates to our own life's journey, and that those who follow Christ, must equally take up their Cross and follow in His footsteps and His example, to accomplish the will of the Father.

The Stations of the Cross, which is an excellently produced, high impact, spiritually directive production, has been given the imprimatur of His Grace, Archbishop Barry Hickey of Perth.
