The tour of the Stations of the Cross is excellent and inspiring. The gift shop offers unique and lovely gifts: beautiful jewelry, a wide variety of books and CDs, unique crosses, wall art, cards, etc. People who work at the Shrine are friendly and very helpful; many are volunteers. Overall, it's a wonderful experience.

I took a brief side trip just to get off the interstate for a few minutes, (8 miles) and saw the signs leading to this place. I saw a beautiful metal statue of St. Mary, and thought that was all I would see. However, when I went inside the marvelous gift shop, I found that there was SO MUCH more....a walk depicting Christ's walk to the cross. It was such a beautiful walk - 40 bronze statues with beautifully detailed faces of Christ and those he encountered during his last days. When you reach the area where the three crosses are, you can see beautiful St. John the Evangelist Church in the background.Before you get to this Shrine, you will go through Crown Point, where you will find a beautiful old courthouse on the square.

The prayer path is wonderful, walk along the footsteps of Jesus, press the buttons and listen to the stations of the cross. Beautiful bronze statues at each station. Narrated by Chicago's Bill Curtis, the path is such a moving experience and draws people from all over the world. A local mans dream became a reality & the Shine of Christ's Passion was born. There is also a wonderful gift shop with beautiful items to choose from. Well worth the drive to St. John, In. to see this amazing religious experience. They have guides that take you on the path in a cart for those who can't walk & guides that also do walking tours or you can just still the path on your own. There is water and other beverages available for purchase along with some snacks. You can spend an hour or two walking the path or less. I really recommend visiting The Shrine of Christ's Passion.

We arrived 5 minutes after the official closing, but the staff told us we could still go through since others were still on the path. The sound quality at each station was phenomenal! You basically push a button at each station to hear the biblical context of the figures. The message is beautiful. We did not go all the way to the church and it took us about 45 minutes. I'm glad we did it. Well try to do it again some time!

Nothing interesting to see and pretty boring. It has a big gift shop selling overpriced items. I thought I might learn something here but didn't.

Follow the path of Jesus Christ in his last days on earth and his resurrection into heaven. Each station has a narration of its significance by Bill Curtis (former tv broadcaster). The statues are made of bronze and the environment is set in the times of Christ. Truly a spiritual journey even for the unbeliever; but especially for those who are called. There are tours and golf carts available for those who need them. Donations are accepted. The entire operation is armed by volunteers save a few employees. I live close by, so I am on the path quite often and always end for the better. Winter access is not advised unless you are sure of foot and adventurous. If you are in need of prayerful time or private reflection, taste and see!

It was super crowded when we went, but everyone was there for the same reason. It was so moving, and I would definitely love to go again. The gift shop is great, too.

I took a walk through this beautiful shrine and have not been able to get it out of mind since. The best time of year to go is spring thru fall because of the beautiful landscaping. A must to see if you are any where near St. JOHN. IN.

It is a beautiful and inspirational place to visit. The detail used in the statuary makes Christ's journey to Calvary come alive. Every time we go we see something we hadn't noticed before. It is so peaceful. A "must see" place. The gift shop has a lot to offer too.
