Readings of the day
Sorrowful Mysteries
Fourth Mystery: The Carrying of the Cross
“The Place of a Skull”, which is called in Hebrew, “Golgotha”John 19:17
Jesus carries His Cross to Calvary. Simon of Cyrene is made to help Him, and along the way He speaks to the women of Jerusalem who weep for Him.
Fruit of the mystery: Patience
The Our Father
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.
