On Friday 27 October, the moving procession along the 14 stations which mark the route between the Sanctuary of the Flagellation and the Holy Sepulchre took place on a particular day: that chosen by Pope Francis for fasting, prayer and penitence for peace in the Holy Land. “All our sisters and brothers of the various Christian confessions, those belonging to other religions and all those who hold the cause of peace in the world dear to their hearts” were invited to join in.
