A family from Syria carried the cross during one of the stations, in remembrance of persecuted Christians. 
Like every year, Pope Francis prayed the Way of the Cross on Holy Friday at the Colosseum in Rome, a symbol of the first martyrs. 

The pope followed the Stations very attentively, though he looked a bit tired. 

Thousands of people participated in silence and listened to the meditations composed by a group of religion students from a Roman high school.
