May 16, 2025, Friday of the Fourth Week of Easter, Holy Rosary (Sorrowful Mysteries)

Friends of the Rosary,As we read today (John 14:1-6), Jesus said to his disciples:"Do not let your hearts be troubled.You have faith in God; have faith also in me.In my Father's house, there are many dwelling places.If there were not, would I have told youthat I am going to prepare a place for you?""I am the way and the truth and the life.No one comes to the Father except through me."Today is the memorial of St. Simon Stock (1165-1265), a hermit who received a vision of the Blessed Mother promising salvation to all those who wore the brown scapular of the Carmelite order. Mary showed Simon, a member of the Carmelite order, a brown scapular. This vision led to the widespread devotion to Mary over the following centuries.Ave Maria!Jesus, I Trust In You!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 York• ⁠May 16, 2025, Today’s Rosary on YouTube | Daily broadcast at 7:30 pm ET
