March 22, 2024, Friday of the Fifth Week of Lent, Holy Rosary (Sorrowful Mysteries)

Friends of the Rosary: Today, one week before Good Friday, we see in the Gospel (Jn 10:31-42) how hatred against Christ escalated in those final days of the Redeemer of the World. Fridays of Lent have a penitential quality. The Stations of the Cross, prayed in many parishes today, allow us to love and treasure the Holy Cross of Jesus. We have to be one in spirit with Him. In our crucifixion with Christ, we find salvation. For Christ and with Christ, we suffer freely and willingly the unpleasant things that occur to us. Fleeing from the Cross instead of holding it dear shouldn’t be our answer. We welcome the Cross as Our Savior did. Ave Maria!Jesus, I Trust In You! To Jesus through Mary!Here am I, Lord; I come to do your will! If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts. + Mikel Amigot | RosaryNetwork.com, New York • March 22, 2024, Today’s Rosary on YouTube | Daily broadcast at 7:30 pm ET
