Way Of The Cross - Reflection

Let us hasten to Gethsemane to prepare and pray for strength to stand bravely on Calvary, when Our Lord calls us to do so. "Father if it be possible let this chalice pass from me, nevertheless not my will, but thine be done." When the shadow of the Cross falls we will be brave, we will stand with the mother of sorrows, with the beloved disciple, with the Magdalen; then we will be more peaceful as the time of sorrow passes and we rise again with our Risen Lord.

We offer up our thoughts over this period of Our Lord's life in honour of and in union with the sorrowful heart of our Mother Mary. We will strive to go hand in hand with her, heart to heart with her, step by step we will tread the way to Calvary.
