PRIEST RIVER—On Aug. 23, 2025 Father Reginald Nwauzor dedicated and blessed new Stations of the Cross recently installed outdoors beside St. Blanche Catholic Church in Priest Lake. The sculptures for each of the stations are large enough to be seen from the highway that passes through the busy summer resort town. Even before the dedication, the Stations attracted visitors who were just passing by. “One Sunday after Mass, I saw three women who were walking out of the Stations,” said Father Nwauzor, pastor at St. Blanche and St. Catherine of Siena Parishes in Priest River. “When I talked to them, they were nearly in tears because they were so moved by the beauty of them. They were Protestants and had never seen the Stations of the Cross before. They were familiar with the Bible, but they said walking through the Stations made His sacrifice more real to them.” .... read on at the link.
