  Friends of the Rosary,God lovingly planted and cared for His vineyard, asking laborers — all of us — for fruit: justice, faithfulness, and love.But He warned that the Kingdom would be entrusted to those who bear good fruit — the faithful and grateful servants.As we read today (Matthew 21:33-43), Jesus said to the chief priests and the elders of the people:"Did you never read in the Scriptures:The stone that the builders rejectedhas become the cornerstone;by the Lord has this been done,and it is wonderful in our eyes?Therefore, I say to you,the kingdom of God will be taken away from youand given to a people that will produce its fruit."In our Sunday prayer, we ask the Lord to make our hearts fruitful, free us from anxiety, and teach us to pray with trust.We follow Paul, who reminds us today (Philippians 4:6-9) not to live in anxiety but to bring everything to God in prayer.Today is the feast of St. Francis of Assisi, which is superseded by the Sunday Liturgy.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

  Friends of the Rosary,Lord Jesus said to the seventy-two disciples who returned rejoicing, saying that even the demons were subject to them — as we read today (Luke 10:17-24):"Do not rejoice because the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice because your names are written in heaven."Later, turning to the disciples in private, he said,"Blessed are the eyes that see what you see.For I say to you,many prophets and kings desired to see what you see,but did not see it,and to hear what you hear, but did not hear it."Indeed, Christ Jesus is giving us wisdom to see how the Creation has been designed and works."I give you praise, Father, Lord of heaven and earth,for although you have hidden these thingsfrom the wise and the learnedyou have revealed them to the childlike.Yes, Father, such has been your gracious will."Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

  October 2, 2026, Memorial of the Holy Guardian Angels, Holy Rosary (Sorrowful Mysteries) 02.10.2026 30min

  Friends of the Rosary,Today, October 2, 2026, the first Friday of the month, is the Memorial of the Holy Guardian Angels, who watch over us, lead us closer to God, and help us to attain salvation.In His providence and in His intimate concern for each person's welfare, God gives us guardian angels to serve as protectors and guides throughout our lives, from the moment the soul is infused at conception.Each person on earth has a guardian whose mission is to conduct us safely through the perils of our earthly life into the joys of the eternal life in heaven. When we seek to win the joys of heaven, we can count on their powerful help.In unseen ways, the angels — servants and messengers of God — help us on our earthly pilgrimage by assisting us in work and study, helping us in times of temptation, and protecting us from physical danger.The Catechism of the Catholic Church states that "the existence of the spiritual, non-corporeal beings that Sacred Scripture usually calls 'angels' is a truth of faith (328)."Saint Francis de Sales said, “Specially love and revere the Guardian Angel of the diocese in which you live, those of the friends who surround you, and your own. Commune with them frequently, join in their songs of praise, and seek their protection and help in all you do, spiritual or temporal.”Today's feast appeared in Spain during the sixteenth century. It was extended to the universal Church and made obligatory in 1670.In today's Gospel, God reminds Job that His wisdom surpasses human understanding. The Psalm says God knows and guides us completely. In the second reading (Matthew 18:1-5, 10), Jesus points to childlike humility and reminds us that the little ones are watched over by angels before the Father."Amen, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will not enter the Kingdom of heaven. Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the Kingdom of heaven. And whoever receives one child such as this in my name receives me."Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

  October 1, 2026, Memorial of St. Thérèse of the Child Jesus, Holy Rosary (Luminous Mysteries) 01.10.2026 30min

  Friends of the Rosary,Today, October 1, the Church celebrates the Memorial of Saint Thérèse of the Child Jesus (1873-1897), Virgin and Doctor of the Church, more popularly known as "the Little Flower."Born in Alençon, France, to Saints Louis and Zélie Martin, this nineteenth-century cloistered Carmelite reminds us that holiness can be lived through small acts done with great love — her “Little Way” of confidence and love.Thérèse's mother died when she was four, and at age fifteen she followed her two older sisters into the Carmel at Lisieux, France. For the next nine years she lived a very ordinary religious life. There are no miracles, exploits, or austerities recorded of her.Enduring extreme penances, Thérèse declared, “It is sufficient to acknowledge one’s nothingness and to abandon oneself like a child to God’s arms."She attained a very high degree of holiness by carrying out her ordinary daily duties with perfect fidelity, having a childlike confidence in God's providence and merciful love, and being ready to serve others at all times.She also had a great love of the Church and a zeal for the conversion of souls. She prayed especially for priests.She died of consumption on September 30, 1897, at the age of 24, and was canonized in 1925.She has never ceased to fulfill her promise: "I will pass my heaven in doing good on earth."“My God, I love you!” was her final prayer.Her inner life is known through her autobiography, Story of a Soul.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

  September 30, 2026, Feast of St. Jerome, Priest and Doctor of the Church, Holy Rosary (Glorious Mysteries) 30.09.2026 28min

  Friends of the Rosary,Following Christ the Lord means trusting His wisdom even when we cannot understand everything.In today’s Gospel (Luke 9:57-62), Jesus teaches that discipleship requires a whole, steady heart to follow him, not delay or look back.He said,“No one who sets a hand to the plow and looks to what was left behind is fit for the Kingdom of God.”Without hesitation, Job in the first reading (Job 9:1-12, 14-16) recognized God’s greatness and mystery, while Saint Jerome, Priest and Doctor of the Church, and the saint of today, showed us how to love His Word more deeply.About Saint Jerome, who in paintings sometimes holds a large rock as a symbol of mortification, after receiving a fine education in the classics in Rome, he settled in a cave in Bethlehem out of an intense devotion to Christ’s life. He studied Hebrew in penance for temptations. The greatest fruit of his lifelong study and writing was the Vulgate, the popular Latin translation of the Bible commissioned by Pope Damasus. He died in 420 and is one of the four great Latin Fathers of the Church.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

  September 29, 2026, Feast of Sts. Michael, Gabriel and Raphael, Archangels, Holy Rosary (Sorrowful Mysteries) 29.09.2026 31min

  Friends of the Rosary,The Catholic Church celebrates today, September 29, the Feast of the venerated archangels Saints Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael.Michael (who is like God?) was the archangel who fought against Satan and all his evil angels, defending all God's friends. He is the protector of all humanity from the snares of the devil.Gabriel (Strength of God) announced to Zachariah the forthcoming birth of John the Baptist, and to Mary, the birth of Jesus, with his greeting to the Virgin, "Hail, full of grace."Raphael (Medicine of God) is the archangel who cared for Tobias on his journey.The Catechism of the Catholic Church teaches us that, "The existence of the spiritual, non-corporeal beings that Sacred Scripture usually calls 'angels' is a truth of faith. The witness of Scripture is as clear as the unanimity of Tradition. In her liturgy, the Church joins with the angels to adore the thrice-holy God." (#328).Angels are pure, created spirits, servants or messengers of God. They are heavenly beings of a higher order than human beings. Angels have no bodies and do not depend on matter for their existence or activity. They are distinct from saints, which men can become. Angels have intellect and will, and are immortal. They are a vast multitude, but each is an individual person.Archangels are one of the nine choirs of angels listed in the Bible. In ascending order, the choirs or classes are 1) Angels, 2) Archangels, 3) Principalities, 4) Powers, 5) Virtues, 6) Dominations, 7) Thrones, 8) Cherubim, and 9) Seraphim.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

  September 28, 2026, Holy Rosary (Joyful Mysteries) 28.09.2026 27min

  Friends of the Rosary,As we discover in the Book of Job today (1:6-22), a wealthy, righteous man named Job lost almost everything (his children, wealth, and health) due to a test allowed by God and instigated by "the adversary". Yet Job didn’t turn against the Divinity. He had trust in the Lord with a child's humility.“The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord!," he concluded.In all this Job did not sin, nor did he say anything ­disrespectful of God.And connected to this passage of the Book of Job—– which is an ancient piece of wisdom literature in the Hebrew Bible and Christian Old Testament that explores why innocent people suffer—, in the Gospel today (Luke 9:46-50), Jesus teaches that true greatness is found in humility and service, not status, and that we should not be jealous when others do good in His name.Faithfulness means trusting God even when life becomes painful or confusing.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

  September 27, 2026, Holy Rosary (Glorious Mysteries) 27.09.2026 28min

  Friends of the Rosary,“Tax collectors and prostitutes are entering the kingdom of God are entering the kingdom of God before you,” said Christ the Lord to the chief priests and elders of the people, as we read in the Gospel today (Matthew 21:28-32), the twenty-sixth Sunday in ordinary time.He explained why."When John came to you in the way of righteousness,you did not believe him;but tax collectors and prostitutes did.Yet even when you saw that,you did not later change your minds and believe him."This means that when someone encounters Jesus Christ, he finds everything he needs to be happy — and to enter the Kingdom.The Lord is infinitely more attractive than the false delights of this earthly world.The main reading also shows that saying “yes” is not enough if our actions say “no.”Saint Paul's passage points us to the humility of Christ, who emptied Himself and obeyed the Father completely, encouraging us to repent, become humble like Christ, and let our obedience be real.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

  Friends of the Rosary,Today, Saturday, the day of the Blessed Mother Mary, and the feast day of Saint Cosmas and Damian, Martyrs, we see Our Lord foretelling his imminent death (Luke 9:43b-45). He said to his disciples:“Pay attention to what I am telling you.The Son of Man is to be handed over to men.”The disciples, while amazed at his every deed, were unable to understand the meaning of Jesus' words. Luke the Evangelist writes,"Its meaning was hidden from themso that they should not understand it,and they were afraid to ask him about this saying."Christ the Lord spoke frequently of his “hour,” the culmination of his life’s work, the mystery of the glorification through the cross.He was sent by the Father for the assault on death through the crucifixion."As a parent would go anywhere in order to rescue his child, so God, the parent of the human race, went into the darkest reaches of body and soul in order to save us. And therefore this is the meaning of the cross: God is heartbroken love," writes Bishop Barron today.St. Paul explained (2 Timothy 1:10): "Our Savior Christ Jesus destroyed death and brought life to light through the Gospel."Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

  Friends of the Rosary,Today, Ecclesiastes (Ecclesiastes 3:1-11) reminds us that life has seasons: joy and sorrow, building and letting go, speaking and silence. God has a time for everything."There is an appointed time for everything,and a time for everything under the heavens.A time to be born, and a time to die;a time to plant, and a time to uproot the plant.A time to kill, and a time to heal;a time to tear down, and a time to build.A time to weep, and a time to laugh;a time to mourn, and a time to dance.A time to scatter stones, and a time to gather them;a time to embrace, and a time to be far from embraces.A time to seek, and a time to lose;a time to keep, and a time to cast away.A time to rend, and a time to sew;a time to be silent, and a time to speak.A time to love, and a time to hate;a time of war, and a time of peace."Also, today in the Gospel (Luke 9:18-22), Jesus asks, “Who do you say that I am?”We are encouraged to trust God’s timing and to answer Christ personally, not just out of habit, with the courage to follow Him and a heart that can say, as Peter did: You are the Christ of God.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

  Friends of the Rosary,In today’s Gospel (Luke 9:7-9), we see that tetrarch Herod, after beheading John the Baptist, was interested and perplexed by what he was hearing about Jesus. St. Luke recounts what people were saying:“John has been raised from the dead”;others were saying, “Elijah has appeared”;still others, “One of the ancient prophets has arisen.”As Bishop Barron explains, political rulers (Cesar Augustus, Herod, Pontius Pilot, don’t come across well in the New Testament, and Jewish authorities are seen as corrupt. They all perceive Christ the Lord as a threat.“Then you are a king?” Pilate asked him. Jesus replied, “My kingdom does not belong to this world.”Of course, Jesus was concerned for the realities of politics and worldly powers, as well as the realm of sin, selfishness, hatred, and violence.But his concerns were justice, peace, and right order, as they are in the Kingdom of Heaven.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

  September 23, 2026, Memorial of St. Pius of Pietrelcina, Priest, Holy Rosary (Glorious Mysteries) 23.09.2026 27min

  Friends of the Rosary,Today, September 23, the Catholic Church celebrates the Memorial of St. Pius of Pietrelcina (1887-1968), known as Padre Pio, a Capuchin Friar who, for fifty years at the monastery of San Giovanni Rotondo, was a much-sought-after spiritual advisor, confessor, and intercessor.The Italian priest himself became a pilgrimage site for both the pious and the curious. He would hear confessions by the hour, reportedly able to read the consciences of those who held back, able to bi-locate, levitate, and heal by touch.Yet despite such notoriety (and spiritual powers), this saint of the last century, whose life was devoted to the Eucharist and prayer, would often say, "I only want to be a poor friar who prays."On September 20, 1918, while praying before a cross, Padre Pio received the stigmata. He was the first priest ever to be so blessed. However, having this gift of the stigmata was very hard on his life — both physically and emotionally.In 1956, he founded the House for the Relief of Suffering, a hospital that serves 60,000 a year. Padre Pio died on September 23, 1968, at age 81.Today there are over 400,000 members worldwide in prayer groups begun by Padre Pio in the 1920s.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

  Friends of the Rosary,In the Gospel of Luke (8:19-21), Christ Jesus says that His true family is “those who hear the word of God and act on it.”The mother of Jesus and his brothers came to himbut were unable to join him because of the crowd.He was told, “Your mother and your brothers are standing outside, and they wish to see you.”He said to them in reply, “My mother and my brothersare those who hear the word of God and act on it.”Tuesday’s message is simple and direct: faith is not just listening, agreeing, or admiring from a distance.Faith becomes real when it shapes our choices, our mercy, our honesty, and our obedience.We ask Our Lord to help us not only to hear His word, but to live it!Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

  September 21, 2026, Feast of St. Matthew, Apostle and Evangelist, Holy Rosary (Joyful Mysteries) 21.09.2026 33min

  Friends of the Rosary,Today, September 21, we celebrate the Feast of St. Matthew, Apostle and Evangelist.As the author of the Gospel of Matthew in the New Testament, the apostle emphasizes Jesus as the fulfillment of the Old Testament promises and tries to convince the Jews that their anticipated Messiah had come in the person of Jesus.Matthew was a publican, that is, a tax-collector for the Romans. His profession was hateful to the Jews because it reminded them of their subjection while robbing his own people and making a large personal profit.In addition, the Pharisees were seeing him as the typical sinner. Publicans were not allowed to trade, eat, or even pray with other Jews.One day, while seated at his table of books and money, Jesus looked at Matthew and said two words: "Follow me." That was all it took to make Matthew rise, leave his pieces of silver, and follow Christ.His original name, "Levi," in Hebrew signifies "Adhesion," while his new name in Christ, Matthew, means "Gift of God."The other outstanding mention of Matthew in the Gospels is the dinner party for Christ and His companions to which he invited his fellow tax-collectors. The Jews were surprised to see Jesus with a publican, but Jesus explained that he had come "not to call the just, but sinners."In the traditional symbolization of the evangelists, based on Ezech. 1:5-10 and Rev. 4:6-7, the image of the winged man is accorded to Matthew as his Gospel begins with the human genealogy of Christ.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

  September 20, 2026, Holy Rosary (Glorious Mysteries) 20.09.2026 30min

  Friends of the Rosary,Today, the Twenty-fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time, we reflect on the parable of the landowner (Matthew 20:1-16a). Christ Jesus tells us that the kingdom of heaven is like this landowner. It's the parable of the workers in the vineyard, with those hired late receiving the same full wage.This can feel unfair until we realize the parable is not about human pay scales; it is about divine generosity. The Lord is generous in mercy and does not think as we do. His ways are higher than ours.Therefore, we are invited not to measure God’s mercy with human jealousy. God is not less good to us because He is generous to someone else.The invitation is to trust Him, seek Him now, and rejoice when grace reaches others too.Another important teaching of today's reading is how relentlessly Jesus himself goes out to find laborers. God takes the initiative in seeking us out. God chooses us despite our utter unworthiness. In truth, God is always giving us far more than we deserve, even in calling us to labor in his kingdom.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

  Friends of the Rosary,Today, in the Gospel of Luke (8:4-15), Jesus tells the parable of the sower. The seed is the Word of God. But since not every soul receives it the same way, the fruit depends on the soil of the heart.Some hearts are hard, some are shallow, some are crowded by worries and pleasures, and some are open, patient, and faithful.God is always sowing His word into our lives, but Faith grows when we listen, remove distractions, and persevere (even when growth feels slow)In 1 Corinthians 15:35-37, 42-49, Paul explains resurrection using the image of a seed. A seed is placed in the ground, and, in a sense, it “dies”; God can transform what looks small, buried, or broken into new life.He is saying that our earthly life is fragile, limited, and marked by weakness, but that God can raise it to glory. What feels buried, hidden, or wasted in our life can still become something new in God’s hands.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

  Friends of the Rosary,Today in the Gospel (Luke 8:1-3), we see people — the Twelve and several women disciples — following Jesus with practical love, supporting His mission with what they had. These women had been healed, freed, and restored, and now they support Him by accompanying Him. Grace received becomes generosity offered.“Jesus journeyed from one town and village to another,preaching and proclaiming the good news of the Kingdom of God.Accompanying him were the Twelveand some women who had been cured of evil spirits and infirmities,Mary, called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out,Joanna, the wife of Herod’s steward Chuza,Susanna, and many otherswho provided for them out of their resources.”In the first reading (1 Corinthians 15:12-20), we see that Christ’s resurrection is the foundation of our hope and faith, but not a symbol, a nice idea, or a comforting belief. St. Paul is very direct: if Christ has not been raised, Christian faith collapses. Because Jesus rose, sin and death do not get the final word. That means our prayers, sacrifices, repentance, and love are not empty. They are joined to a living Lord.“If there is no resurrection of the dead,then neither has Christ been raised.And if Christ has not been raised, then empty too is our preaching;empty, too, your faith.”“If for this life only we have hoped in Christ,we are the most pitiable people of all.”“But now Christ has been raised from the dead,the first fruits of those who have fallen asleep.”Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

  Friends of the Rosary,Today in the Gospel (Luke 7:36–50), the Lord Jesus corrects Simon the Pharisee's strict religiosity.He wrongly believes that divine favor is won through human achievement. The “sinful woman” in the house of Simon the Pharisee is an example that God’s mercy is not abstract.The forgiven woman loves boldly because she knows what grace has done for her. The Gospel invites us to receive forgiveness honestly, and then let gratitude become love.As a prayer for today, we ask Lord Jesus to help us come to Him without hiding. And to teach me to trust His mercy, receive His forgiveness, and love Him with a grateful heart.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

  Friends of the Rosary,Today, September 16, when we honor, as saints of the day, Cornelius, Pope, and Cyprian, Bishop, and both, Martyrs, we read in the Gospel of Luke (7:31–35) how the Lord noted that the people of his generation criticize him as "a friend of tax collectors and sinners." 
"For John the Baptist came neither eating food nor drinking wine,
and you said, ‘He is possessed by a demon.’
The Son of Man came eating and drinking and you said,
‘Look, he is a glutton and a drunkard,
a friend of tax collectors and sinners.’
But wisdom is vindicated by all her children."But Jesus came as God to bring the light of divine presence and love into our fallen and dysfunctional world full of sin. He went to the poor, the disabled, the marginalized, the forgotten, those crippled by sin.As Bishop Barron explains, "He came to bring the ordo of God into a disordered world. He came as the keynote to tune up a cacophonous universe. And thus the proponents of disorder and the producers of the cacophony sought to destroy him.""The Church is the mystical body of Jesus, the living organism that makes present Christ’s mind and will in the world. It is his love made flesh throughout the ages, his hands and feet and eyes and heart. We are all, through baptism, members of that body."Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

  September 15, 2026, Memorial of Lady of Sorrows, Holy Rosary (Sorrowful Mysteries) 15.09.2026 28min

  Friends of the Rosary,Today, September 15, is the Memorial of Our Lady of Sorrows, with the devotion of the Seven Sorrows of Mary. The two titles focus on Mary's spiritual martyrdom and her sufferings with her Divine Son.The feast dates back to the 12th century and was especially promoted by the Cistercians and the Servites. The Seven Dolors of Mary refers to the seven swords that pierced her Heart, as Simeon had foretold.The seven sorrows of Mary:The prophecy of Simeon, (Luke 2:25-35)The flight into Egypt, (Matthew 2:13-15)Loss of the Child Jesus for three days, (Luke 2:41-50)Mary meets Jesus on his way to Calvary, (Luke 23:27-31; John 19:17)Crucifixion and Death of Jesus, (John 19:25-30)The body of Jesus being taken from the Cross (deposition from the Cross), (Psalm 130; Luke 23:50-54; John 19:31-37)The burial of Jesus, (Isaiah 53:8; Luke 23:50-56; John 19:38-42; Mark 15:40-47)Mary stands with Jesus in sorrow, and she teaches us how to remain faithful when love is painful. The Church is one Body, and suffering borne with Christ can become communion rather than isolation.Our Lady of Sorrows is the patroness of people named Dolores, Dolais, Deloris, Dolorita, Maria Dolorosa, Pia, and Pieta.In Italy, the title of Our Lady of Sorrows is Maria Santissima Addolorata. She is the patron of many Italian cities. In southern Italy, there is La Festa della Madonna dei Sette Dolori (the festival of the Seven Sorrows of the Madonna), also called the Madonna dell’Addolorata Festival.Today, Roman Martyrology also commemorates St. Nicomedes, an early Roman martyr of unknown date, and St. Catherine of Genoa (1447-1510), who wrote a treatise on Purgatory and a Dialogue between the soul and body—two outstanding documents of Christian mysticism.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!
