Via Dolorosa

During chapel one day Mother Alena was talking about her trip to Israel. She talked about how she walked along the Via Dolorosa, which if you break it up. Via= road. Dolor= grief. Osa= way. Putting that all together it means the way of the grief. Looking into where Israel is located it is the way Jesus traveled with the cross before he was killed on the cross. He traveled with the cross om this road and it was later named this in the honor of what happened to him.
