  • USCCB Prayers a Rosary for Life: the Sorrowful Mysteries
    USCCB Prayers A Rosary for Life: The Sorrowful Mysteries The following meditations on the Sorrowful Mysteries of the Rosary are offered as a prayer for all life, from conception to natural death. The First Sorrowful Mystery The Agony in the Garden Prayer Intention: For all who are suffering from abandonment or neglect, that compassionate individuals will come forward to offer them comfort and aid. Jesus comes with his disciples to the garden of Gethsemane and prays to be delivered from his Passion, but most of all, to do the Father's will. Let us pray that Christ might hear the prayers of all who suffer from the culture of death, and that he might deliver them from the hands of their persecutors. Our Father... Holy Mary, Our Lady of Sorrows: hear the cries of innocent children taken from their mothers' wombs and pray for us sinners now, and at the hour of our death. Amen. Hail Mary, full of grace... Holy Mary, Our Lady of Sorrows: soothe the aching hearts of those afraid to welcome their child. Hail Mary, full of grace... Holy Mary, Our Lady of Sorrows: guide the heart of the frightened unwed mother who turns to you. Hail Mary, full of grace... Holy Mary, Our Lady of Sorrows: move the hearts of legislators to defend life from conception to natural death. Hail Mary, full of grace... Holy Mary, Our Lady of Sorrows: be with us when pain causes us to forget the inherent value of all human life. Hail Mary, full of grace... Holy Mary, Our Lady of Sorrows: pray for the children who have forgotten their elderly parents.

  • Total Consecration to Jesus Through Mary
    Saint Louis-Marie de Montfort’s Total Consecration to Jesus Through Mary Choose a day for the Consecration To begin, choose the date of a Marian Feast on which to make the consecration. Whichever Feast you choose will determine the date to begin a 33-day period of spiritual preparation, i.e., you follow spiritual exercises for 33 days, and the next day will be the Marian Feast on which you consecrate yourself. Below is a list of Marian Feasts which are the same on both the traditional and Novus Ordo calendars: Feast / Start of Marian Feast You've Chosen Consecration 33-day Plan Day Apparition of the Immaculate 9 Jan 11 Feb Virgin Mary at Lourdes 20 Feb 1 The Annunciation 25 Mar 13 Jun Our Lady of Mt. Carmel 16 Jul 13 Jul The Assumption 15 Aug 6 Aug Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary 8 Sep 13 Aug Our Lady of Sorrows 15 Sep 19 Oct Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary 21 Nov 5 Nov Immaculate Conception 8 Dec 9 Nov Our Lady of Guadalupe 12 Dec 1 21 Feb when February has 29 days. The Feast of the Annunciation is the Feast that St. Louis de Montfort recommends most of all as it is this Feast that commemorates God Himself taking on flesh and, thereby, subjecting even Himself to trust in and dependency on Our Lady Recommendation: To read St. Louis de Montfort’s True Devotion to Mary either before beginning the Consecration or in conjunction with it. Begin the 33-Day Preparation for Consecration Now begins the 33-day period of exercises.

  • The Devotion of the Seven Sorrows of the Blessed Virgin Mary
    The Devotion of the Seven Sorrows of the Blessed Virgin Mary “God wills to establish in the world devotion to My Immaculate Heart.” Why Devotion to the Heart of Our Mother in Her Sorrows? Because Jesus wants this devotion. “Jesus Christ Himself revealed to Blessed Veronica of Binasco, that, He is more pleased in seeing His Mother compassionated than Himself.” He said to her: ‘My daughter, tears shed for My Passion are dear to Me; but as I loved My Mother Mary with an immense love, the meditation on the torments which She endured at My death is even more agreeable to Me.’ “Wherefore the graces promised by Jesus to those who are devoted to the dolors of Mary are very great.”1 Because Our Lady also wants it! Our Lady lamented to St. Bridget that very few consoled Her by meditating on Her Sorrows, and “that the greater part of the world lived in forgetfulness of them: ‘I look around at all who are on earth, to see if by chance there are any who pity Me, and meditate upon My Sorrows; and I find that there are very few. Therefore, My daughter, though I am forgotten by many, at least do you not forget Me; consider My anguish, and imitate, as far as you can, My grief.’”2 “For this purpose the Blessed Virgin Herself appeared in the year 1239 to the founder of the Order of the Servites, or servants of Mary, to ask them to institute a religious order in remembrance of Her sorrows.”3 It is a major Request of Heaven given at Fatima.

  • Mary, Our Lady of Sorrows Th (Memorial September 15 )​ ​
    Mary, Our Lady of Sorrows th (Memorial September 15 )​ ​ “And thy own soul a sword shall pierce, that, out of many hearts, thoughts may be revealed.” – Gospel of Luke 2:35 Our sojourn in this life is comprised of many joys and many sorrows. It is ultimately an encounter with the Cross and an opportunity to love the One who made us and calls us to share in a life of everlasting peace. Our path to the ‘Pearly Gates’ is effectively walked through the formation of the heart. We might ask ourselves, “What is ​ ​ ​ the disposition of my heart?” The pathway to the heart is peppered with many tests of ​ faith and challenges of charity. Will we allow the Holy Spirit to mould our hearts into true likenesses of Christ or will we give way to fear and mediocrity and so scurry away from the Light because it is too bright? Are we willing to pick up our Cross, or to stand by those who are suffering in their hour of need? As we seek a deeper understanding of the nature of God and of the unique relationship He desires with each one of us, we will, quite naturally, be drawn to him in the Sacraments. It is there that we encounter him in the most intimate way and allow Him to form our hearts and fill us with His supernatural strength, thereby deepening our capacity to love. To witness the suffering of a loved one is a heavy Cross and indeed requires special grace. Ah, if I could only take some of their pain away! If I could just take their ​ place.

Brian My 2 sisters attended Magnificat High School in Rocky River, Ohio, the town where we grew up. That Catholic high school is named for the prayer that the Virgin Mary recited upon being praised by her cousin Elizabeth for having bee n chosen by God to become the Mother of the Messiah. The word “Magnificat” is the first word in her prayer, which begins (in Latin), Magnificat anima meaDominum . The literal English translation is “My souls magnifies the Lord.” The translation that we hear in the Responsorial Psalm (actually taken from St. Luke’s Gospel) this Sunday is, “My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord.” What Mary is doing is redire cting the praise that Elizabeth had given to her. Mary instead wants all of the glory to go to God.

  • Theological Reflections on Marian Coredemption and the Work of the International Marian Association
    Theological Reflections on Marian Coredemption and the Work of the International Marian Association By Robert Fastiggi, Ph.D. Professor of Systematic Theology, Sacred Heart Major Seminary, Detroit, Michigan USA. Introduction: Mary’s role in salvation history: her joint predestination with Christ. In his Jan. 1 2015 homily for the Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God, Pope Francis taught: The Blessed Virgin is the woman of faith who made room for God in her heart and in her plans; she is the believer capable of perceiving in the gift of her Son the coming of that “fullness of time” (Gal 4:4) in which God, by choosing the humble path of human existence, entered personally into the history of salvation. That is why Jesus cannot be understood without his Mother. In a homily given April 24, 1970 at the Marian shrine of Our Lady of Bonaria in Cagliari, Sardinia, Pope Paul VI remarked. “If we want to be Christian, we must also be Marian; that is we must recognize the essential, vital, providential bond which unites Our Lady with Jesus and which opens to us the way that leads us to him.” (AAS 62 ([970] 300-301]. In discussing the Catholic dogmas about Mary, we must always keep in mind this “providential bond” which links our Lord, Jesus, to his Mother. St. Paul, in Gal 4:4 writes that, “when the fullness of time had come, God sent his Son, born of woman, born under the law” (NAB). This means that a woman named Mary, the Mother of the Incarnate Word of God, is at the very center of salvation history.
