CELEBRATE THE VICTORY & REMEMBER THE SUFFERING!

Dear readers, as we dedicate this week to the memory of the Passion, Death, and Resurrection of the Lord, we focus on the tremendous suffering of Jesus at His Passion. It is by His suffering and death that we come to celebrate His triumph over sin and death, and our salvation!

It would also seem more than appropriate to contemplate the extreme sufferings of the Blessed Mother during and after the Passion and Death of Jesus. She witnessed the cruel torture of her Divine Son and followed along on His death march to Calvary. She watched as the spikes were driven through His hands and feet, and She stood at the foot of the Cross as he hung there in agony, struggling for breath.

She suffered as His body was taken down from the Cross. What sheer agony She must have experienced as She cleaned His wounds and prepared His body for burial. And what agony she experienced as She watched the tomb being sealed, closing with finality that chapter of Her earthly life with Her Divine Son.

Then, contemplate the depths of the grief which She experienced after the tomb was sealed and returned to Her home, without her Son, only to revisit the torments of that day!

Truly, no human has ever suffered more than the Blessed Mother! Sadly, she continues to suffer to this very day all on account of the callous indifference to the love and sacrifice of Her Son, to whom she continues to beckon us.

How sad it is then that She continues to be victimized by LANGSENKAMP, MCCARTHY, AND THESE OTHER MINIONS OF THE FALLEN ANGEL who, driven by love and lust for money have hijacked and desecrated this devotion which is an intended means for Her to call even more wayward souls back to Her Son!

By Thy Holy and Immaculate Conception, Oh Mary, deliver us from evil and from those thieves and liars who have hijacked and desecrated Your devotion all for the love and lust for money!
