First Station: Jesus is condemned to death
Second Station: Jesus carries His cross

At 5:30 am we are fetching bro.Allan Labrias for our 1st & 2nd Station.Approaching

St.Mary's Church we decided to park at Rashid Hospital (Staff Parking),
coz' im sure..no parking space available this time.

I took snaps outside the church and met some friends before taking
VR (Virtual Reality Photo).

It is a 5 minutes walk from the Hospital to St.Mary's Church... a very busy and

rush morning...everybody are on their speed to church..families, couples,

single, vendors and even Dubai Police are seen outside the church.

At the gate of the church... you will be welcome by the ushers who will guide

you inside the church....when we enter the compound...people are piling up...stand

praying...hmmmm... 'm very sure the church is full.

So, i decided to stay outside while waiting for the others.Took a quick shots to

an indian kids playing, rushing people, praying outside the church,kabayans on a party dress

taking a snap for a souvenir. I met my friend Erik. I saw fellow CFC's on a two

shuttle bus waiting for their cue to start the visita iglesia.

Few minutes more...Sis.Rose, Sis.Dhel & Bro. Arnel arrived and we start our

1st & @nd Station of the cross. It is a very quick prayer and off we go....to SHARJAH.
