Contritos Corde: Sorrows of the Immaculata

By Peter Nero

There are several devotions to the Blessed Mother, the Rosary, the Immaculate Conception, and Our Lady of Fatima. These devotions are meant to bring you closer to Mary who will lead you into a very special relationship with her son Jesus.

The devotion of Mary’s Sorrows has a special place in the hearts of Mary’s faithful. By meditating on Our Lady’s sorrows, one realizes how very special she is and why God found great favor in her.
