With Our Mother

Let Us Pray For The Blessing of Partaking In Her Sorrow

  At the cross her station keeping Stood the mournful Mother weeping Close to Jesus to the last.

O Sweet Mother! Fount of Love, Touch my spirit from above  Make my heart with yours accord.

 Make me feel as you Have felt  Make my soul to glow and melt  With the love of Christ, my Lord.

Holy Mother, pierce me through  In my heart each wound renew  Of my Savior crucified.

Let me share with you His pain,  Who for all our sins was slain,  Who for me in torments dies.

Let me mingle tears with thee Mourning Him who mourned for me, All the days that I may live.

By the cross with you to stay  There with you to weep and pray  Is all I ask you to give.

Virgin of all virgins Blest!  Listen to my fond request:  Let me share your grief divine.

Oh sweet Mother of the Word Incarnate…Despise not our petition, but in thy mercy hear and answer us.

*Traditional hymn from the Stations of the Cross

Holiest of All Weeks

Any reflections you want to share are welcome here, as we walk with Jesus in this Holy Week.

Almighty, ever-living God,
You have given the human race Jesus Christ our Savior
as a model of humility.
He fulfilled your will
by becoming man and giving His life on the cross.

Help us to bear witness to you
by following His example of suffering
and make us worthy to share in His resurrection.

We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever.  Amen
