Our Lady of Sorrows
Today we celebrate Our Lady of Sorrows
The suffering of rightly Jesus is front and centre in our faith however it is always worth also paying attention to the suffering of Our Lady.
At Jesus’ crucifixion and death Mary did the only thing she could to help: She was there. She shared in her sons sorrow and pain. In the same way Our Lady shares in our sorrow and is there for us. She is there as a mother to scoop us up and offer us comfort in our grief. By honouring Our Lady of Sorrows we to share in hers.
Our Lady of Sorrows, pray for us.

The Birthday of Our Lady
Today we celebrate the birthday of Our Lady.
May today we feel the joy of the birth of Mary, our mother. May we take the time to celebrate Our Lady and all she had done to intercede for us. May we always remember we can run to her in our time of need and she will guide us by the hand to her beloved son.
Mary, Mother of the Church, pray for us

Mother Teresa
Today we celebrate the memorial of Mother Teresa.
Mother Teresa believed we were all called to “do something beautiful for God.” Every act of love brings us face to face with God. Our greatest goal in life is “to be a small pencil in the hand of a loving God who is writing a love letter to the world.”
Mother Teresa, pray for us.

St Augustine
Today we celebrate the feast of St Augustine
St Augustine didn’t start his life in a saintly way however he experienced such a powerful conversion that not only did he turn his life around but he was so in love with God he was on fire love for him. Check out these quote of his below
“Come, O Lord, and stir our hearts. Call us back to yourself. Kindle your fire in us and carry us away. Let us scent your fragrance and taste your sweetness. Let us love you and hasten to your side” (VIII, 4).
“The message of your Holy Scriptures has set my heart throbbing, O Lord, and with the merger powers that are mine in this life I struggle hard to understand it” (XII, 1).
“You called me; you cried aloud to me; you broke my barrier of deafness…. I tasted you, and now I hunger and thirst for you. You touched me, and I am inflamed with love of your peace” (X, 27).
“O Love ever burning, never quenched! O Charity, my God, set me on fire with your love!” (X, 29).

Saint Bernard, may we see in your devotion to Mary and keen eye for beauty, the model of an educated and devoted monk. Intercede for all religious, and for all those with a contemplative heart who are in the world, to love God half as well as you did.
St Bernard, pray for us
