Thursday 14th May 2020 - Our Lady of Sorrows

“Do not leave the altar without first shedding tears of sorrow and love for Jesus, crucified for your eternal salvation. Our Lady of Sorrows will keep you company and inspire you”.

Saint Padre Pio

Sometimes we can be sad and upset but we are never alone. Even watching her son Jesus die on the Cross did not stop Mary from trusting in God and his plans. Mary stayed with Jesus through his crucifixion and she stays with us in our time of need.

Prayer: Our Mother of Sorrows, with strength from above you stood by the cross, sharing in the sufferings of Jesus. Holy Mary, may we follow your example, and stand by all your children who need comfort and love. Amen.
