Our Lady of Sorrow

The Tears of Our Lady of Sorrow

Do you love your faith? Does it feed your soul? I cannot speak for other faiths, or even for others of the faithful. I can only speak for myself, from my limited perspective. I cannot imagine life without my Catholic Faith.

Our Lady’s Sorrowful Heart

Today is a very special day for those who feel a special connection to Mary. It is the Feast Day of Our Lady of Sorrow. The pain Mary must have felt watching her Son die in such a horrific way.

Blessed Be Our Mother of Sorrow

Catholics have always held a long standing devotion to Mary, the Mother of God. As adopted children of God, through the act of baptism, Mary becomes our mother in Heaven. It is through this relationship that Catholics feel a connection to her.

Feast of Our Lady of Sorrows

Mary suffered greatly during the passion and death of her son, Christ Jesus. It was because of this suffering that she was given the title Our Lady of Sorrow. Recognizing her suffering has been a part of the Catholic Faith almost from the beginning.

The title of Our Lady of Sorrows was given to our Blessed Mother to focus on her intense suffering of unimaginable grief during the passion and death of her son, our Lord Jesus Christ. Traditionally, Mary’s suffering was not limited to the events surrounding the crucifixion.
