In this Catechism for Kids – Stations of the Cross series, we reflect on the Fifth Station of the Cross: Simon of Cyrene Helps Jesus Carry the Cross.

As Jesus Christ struggles under the weight of the Cross, the soldiers force a man named Simon of Cyrene to help Him. At first, Simon may not have wanted to help — but by sharing the burden, he walks beside Jesus.

This station teaches children:

God sometimes sends helpers

Helping others is helping Jesus

We grow stronger when we carry burdens together

Love often means stepping in when it’s hard

In this episode, kids will learn:

Who Simon of Cyrene was

Why helping others matters

How small acts of service can change hearts

What it means to “carry someone’s cross”

The Fifth Station reminds us that we are called to help one another on the journey to heaven.
