Should Catholics pray the Stations of the Cross after Easter Sunday?

Answer 1

The Viae Crucis exercitium (Exercise of the Way of the Cross) carries a plenary indulgence (under the usual conditions: Holy Communion on that day, prayers said on that day for the reigning pontiff, and confession within eight days) anytime. The Way of the Cross is an excellent prayer, and should be prayed often, for the plenary indulgence, in addition to the usual conditions (noted above) it must be made before Stations of the Way of the Cross legitimately erected (in a Church or Chapel) and a pious meditation made on each Station and movement from one Station to the next unless the Exercise is made with a group, in which case, only the leader need make the physical journey around the various stations. It is often made as a public group on Fridays during Lent, but this is no excuse not to make them frequently year round!
