September Main Course
Our Lady of Sorrows
Our Lady of Sorrows feast day is September 15. Why does Mary hold this title?
Think, as a mother, watching your son grow up and then be led to the most torturous death of all... Wouldn't that be full of sorrow? Most definitely! Mother Mary has many titles to remind us of her profound participation in salvation history and how we came to be.
The Seven Sorrows of Mary is a great devotional to invite us into deeper relationship with our Heavenly Mother as she endured the painful walk with supreme virtue as she watched Jesus' Passion and death on the cross. These videos and links will better explain them!
