In the quiet of our hearts, we come to you,
Our Lady of Sorrows, Mother of the Crucified, Mother of us all.
O most Sorrowful Virgin Mary, you stood faithfully beside your Son,
Pierced by seven swords of sorrow.
You bore suffering with perfect love,
And your heart became a mirror of His Passion.
We turn to you now, Mother of Sorrows,
Asking for the grace to suffer with hope,
To love with courage,
And to unite our wounds to yours.
The Seven Sorrows of Mary:
The Prophecy of Simeon – Joy and warning: “A sword will pierce your heart.”
The Flight into Egypt – You fled in darkness, carrying the Light of the world.
The Loss of the Child Jesus – Three days of searching, your heart aching with absence.
Meeting Jesus on the Way to the Cross – You saw Him bloodied, burdened, yet loved without condemnation.
Standing at the Foot of the Cross – You received His final breath with silent strength, becoming Mother of the Church.
The Crucifixion and Descent – His lifeless body rested in your arms; your tears watered the seed of salvation.
The Burial of Christ – Stone sealed the silence, yet you waited in hope, trusting God even in death.
O Lady of Sorrows,
Teach us to remain with Christ in suffering,
To be brave in grief,
And to believe in the promise of resurrection.
Our Lady of Sorrows, pray for us.

The Passion of St. John the Baptist
God of truth and light,
You called John the Baptist to prepare the way for Your Son,
crying out in the wilderness,
calling sinners to repentance,
and shining the light of justice in the courts of kings.
When the cost of truth was death,
he did not flinch.
When the price of integrity was silence,

Prayer to Saint Pope Pius X
O holy Pope Pius,
you were a humble shepherd who longed to bring Christ closer to His people.
You opened wide the doors of the Eucharist,
calling even the youngest to the table of the Lord.
You rekindled reverence for sacred worship
and defended the truth with courage and clarity.
