Intro to the day: “Mary was a martyr, not by the sword of the executioner, but by bitter sorrow of heart.” –Saint Bernard of Clairveaux
Today is Monday, the Memorial of Our Lady of Sorrows. We are praying for the faculty, staff, and families of St. James Catholic School in Cincinnati, OH.
In the Gospel, Jesus, upon the cross, places His mother into the care of St. John.
Gospel: John 19:25-27
Saint of the Day: Our Lady of Sorrows from the Introduction of St. Alphonsus de Liguori’s Meditation on the Seven Sorrows of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
Marian prayer for the day: Hail Mary
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with you.
Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the Fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners
Now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.
