 PRAYERS AFTER MASS
Sunday (Prayer Before a Crucifix)
Behold, o good and most sweet Jesus, I fall upon my knees before thee, and with
most fervent desire, beg and beseech thee that thou wouldst impress upon my heart a
lively sense of faith, hope and charity, true repentance for my sins and a firm resolve
to make amends. And with deep affection and grief, I reflect upon thy five wounds,
having before my eyes that which thy prophet David spoke about thee, o good Jesus:
“they have pierced my hands and feet, they have counted all my bones”. Amen

Monday (Anima Christi)

Soul of Christ, Sanctify me. Body of Christ, save me. Blood of Christ, drench me.
Water from the side of Christ, wash me. Passion of Christ, strengthen me. O good
Jesus, hear me! In your wounds shelter me. From turning away, keep me. From the
evil one, protect me. At the hour of my death, call me. Into your presence, lead me,
to praise you with all your saints forever and ever. Amen.

Tuesday (Self-Dedication to Jesus)

Lord, Jesus Christ, take all my freedom, my memory, my understanding, and my
will. All that I have and cherish, you have given me. I surrender it all to be guided by
your will. Your grace and your love are wealth enough for me. Give me these, Lord
Jesus, and I ask for nothing more.

Wednesday (Prayer to St. Joseph After Mass)

Guardian of virgins and Father, Saint Joseph, to whose faithful custody Innocence
itself, Christ Jesus, and Mary, Virgins of virgins, was committed; I pray and beseech
thee by each of these dear pledges, Jesus and Mary, that, being preserved from un-
cleanliness, I may with spotless mind, pure heart, and a chaste body, ever serve Jesus
and Mary most chastely all the days of my life, Amen.

Thursday (Prayer for Peace)

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred let me bring your
love; where there is injury, your pardon, Lord; and where there is doubt, true faith in
you. Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is despair in life, let
me bring your hope; where there is darkness, only light; and where there is sadness
ever joy. O master, grant that I may never seek, so much to be consoled as to con-
sole, to be understood as to understand; to be loved as to love with all my heart. For
it is giving that we receive, it is pardoning that we are pardoned; it is in dying that
we are born to eternal life. Amen.

38
Friday (Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel)
Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in the battle, be our safeguard and protection
against the wickedness and snares of the devil; may God rebuke him, we humbly
pray; and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly host, by the power of God, thrust into
hell Satan and all evil spirits who wander through the world seeking the ruin of
souls. Amen.

Saturday (Prayer to the Virgin Mary)

Mary, holy virgin mother, I have received your Son, Jesus Christ. With love you
became his mother, gave birth to him, nursed him, and helped him grow to manhood.
With love I return him to you, to hold once more, to love with all your heart, and to
offer to the Holy Trinity our supreme act of worship for your honor and for the good
of all your pilgrim brothers and sisters. Mother, ask God to forgive my sins and to
help me serve him more faithfully. Keep me true to Christ until death and let me
come to praise him with you forever and ever. Amen

PRAYER BEFORE HOLY HOUR

O sweet Jesus, I beg your blessing for me and for all those who are near and
dear to me. Let it be felt by the poor, the sick and the afflicted who cannot
come to receive it. Let the weak and the tempted feel its power wherever they
may be. Let the poor sinners, especially the dying, feels its influence arousing
them to come to you. Let your benediction, O Jesus, cross the deserts and the
seas, and animate the missionaries far away, toiling for souls so dear to your
Most Sacred Heart. Let it penetrate the realms of purgatory and prove a sooth-
ing balm to the souls suffering there. Stir up, O Lord, in your Church, a spirit of
piety and courage, which will have its effects more worthy ministers at your
altar and more strenuous defenders of your word. These we ask you, who live
and reign with God the Father, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God forever
and ever. Amen.

faith and make it spread and grow strong all around us. You, the Philippines’ first saint, be the
country’s special protector. Unite us as one people; help us to work in harmony for develop-
ment and progress; and give us peace. Amen.

Novena Prayer to St. Thomas Aquinas (Bukluran Igsuon)

Ineffable Creator, Who out of the treasures of Your wisdom has appointed three hier-
archies of Angels and set them in admirable order high above the heavens and has disposed
the different portions of the universe in such marvelous array, You Who are called the True
Source of Light and super-eminent Principle of Wisdom, be pleased to cast a beam of Your
radiance upon the darkness of my mind and dispel from me the double darkness of sin and
ignorance in which I have been born.
You Who makes eloquent the tongues of little children, fashion my words and pour
upon my lips the grace of Your benediction. Grant me penetration to understand, capacity to
retain, method and facility in study, subtlety in interpretation and abundant grace of expres-
sion.
Order the beginning, direct the progress and perfect the achievement of my work, You
who are true God and Man and lives and reigns for ever and ever. Amen.

A Student’s Prayer (by: St. Thomas Aquinas)

Come, Holy Spirit, Divine Creator, true source of light and fountain of wisdom! Pour forth
your wisdom upon my dense intellect, dissipate the darkness which covers me, that of sin and
of ignorance. Grant me a penetrating mind to understand, a retentive memory, method and
ease in learning, the lucidity to comprehend, and abundant grace in expressing myself. Guide
the beginning of my work, direct its progress, and bring it to successful completion. This I ask
through Jesus Christ, true God and true man, living and reigning with You and the Father,
forever and ever. Amen.

Prayer after study

I thank you, Lord our God, that again on this occasion You have opened my eyes to the light
of your wisdom. You have gladdened my heart with the knowledge of truth. I entreat you,

me to grow in grace, virtue and good habits, that your name may be glorified, Father, Son, and
Holy Spirit, now and forever. Amen.

Prayer for Priests

O Jesus, I pray for your faithful and fervent priests; for your unfaithful and tepid priests; for
your priests laboring at home or abroad in distant mission fields. For your tempted priests; for
your lonely and desolate priests; for the souls of your priests in purgatory. But above all, I
recommend to you the priests dearest to me: the priest who baptized me; the priests who ab-
solved me from my sins; the priests at whose Masses I assisted and who gave my Your Body
and Blood in Holy Communion; the Priests who taught and instructed me; all the priests to
whom I am indebted in any other way (especially…).
O Jesus, keep them all close to your heart, and bless them abundantly in time and in eternity.

also give our fiat to Jesus, your loving Son who called and chose us to be His shepherd to His
flock and servants in his vineyards.

hearted and respectful.

and will, but always ready to submit, obey and honor.

His way and accept His cross. Amen.

But our enemy is attacking! Society is flooded with perverse distortions of this plan. We cry
out to You: marriages are being destroyed, young people are being poisoned, and vulnerable
children are being robbed of their innocence. Forgive us and defend us! Cast out all the evil
spirits who are using every means to defile our dignity.
In this spiritual warfare, give us divine wisdom and strength to overcome the evil of pornogra-
phy. Grant us victory in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

 NOVENA TO THE NATIVITY OF OUR LADY

Novena Prayer

Vouchsafe that I may praise thee, O sacred Virgin; give me strength against thine ene-
mies, and against the enemy of the whole human race. Give me strength humbly to pray to
thee. Give me strength to praise thee in prayer with all my powers, through the merits of thy
most sacred nativity, which for the entire Christian world was a birth of joy, the hope and
solace of its life. When thou wast born, O most holy Virgin, then was the world made light.
Happy is thy stock, holy thy root, and blessed thy fruit, for thou alone as a virgin, filled with
the Holy Spirit, didst merit to conceive thy God, as a virgin to bear Thy God, as a virgin to
bring Him forth, and after His birth to remain a virgin. Have mercy therefore upon me a sin-
ner, and give me aid, O Lady, so that just as thy nativity, glorious from the seed of Abraham,
sprung from the tribe of Juda, illustrious from the stock of David, didst announce joy to the
entire world, so may it fill me with true joy and cleanse me from every sin. Pray for me, O
Virgin most prudent, that the gladsome joys of thy most helpful nativity may put a cloak over
all my sins. O holy Mother of God, flowering as the lily, pray to thy sweet Son for me, a
wretched sinner. Amen.

OPENING HYMN: (stand)

IMMACULATE MOTHER (page 143)

OPENING PRAYER: (remain standing)

Leader: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
All: Amen.

Leader: Brothers and sisters, as children of our Blessed Mother, we are gathered before her
miraculous picture to honor her and to pray for all our needs. Unworthy children that we are,
let us first of all ask God's mercy and pardon.

All: Merciful father * you sent your Divine Son * to redeem us by his death and resurrection *
and to give us new life. By this you make us your children * to love one another in Christ.
How many times in the past * we have forgotten this sublime dignity. We have sinned against
our brothers and sisters; * we have offended you. Merciful father, forgive us. Repenting sin-
cerely of our sins, we ask your mercy; * may we always live as your truly devoted children.

MARY IMMACULATE, STAR OF THE MORNING (page 143)

(please kneel)

NOVENA PRAYER
Dear Mother of Perpetual Help* from the cross Jesus gave you to us for our Mother. You are
the kindest, the most loving* of all mothers. Look tenderly on us your children * as we now
ask you to help us in all our needs* especially this one: (pause to recall your petition).

56
While you were on earth, dear Mother * you willingly shared in the sufferings of your Son.
Strengthened by your faith and confidence * in the fatherly love of God * you accepted the
mysterious designs of His will.

We too, have our crosses and trials. Sometimes they almost crush us to the ground. Dearest
Mother * share with us your abundant faith and confidence in God. Make us aware that God
never ceases to love us; * that he answers all our prayers * in the way that is best for us.
Strengthen our hearts to carry the cross *in the footsteps of your divine Son. Help us to realize
* that he who shares the cross of Christ * will certainly share His resurrection.

Dearest Mother, as we worry about our own problems * let us not forget the needs of others.
You always loved others so much; * help us to do the same. While praying for our own inten-
tions * and for the intentions of all here present at this novena * we earnestly ask you, our
Mother * to help us comfort the sick and the dying * give hope to the poor and the unem-
ployed * heal the broken-hearted * lighten the burden of the oppressed * teach justice to their
oppressors and bring back to God all those who have offended him.

Dearest mother, help us to avoid sin which separates us from our Heavenly Father * and from
one another. Full of trust in you * we place ourselves under the mantle of your maternal pro-
tection * and confidently hope for your powerful help. Amen.

PRAYER FOR THE HOME

Mother of perpetual help * we choose you as Queen of our homes. We ask you to bless all our
families * with your tender motherly love. May the sacrament of marriage * bind husbands
and wives so closely together * that they will always be faithful to each other * and love one
another as Christ loves his Church.

We ask you to bless all parents. May they love and cherish the children * whom God has en-
trusted to them. May they always give them the example * of a truly Christian life. Help them
to bring up their children * in the love and fear of God. Bless all children * that they may love,
honor and obey * their fathers and mothers. To your loving care * we especially entrust the
youth of today.

Give us all a sense of responsibility * that we may do our part * in making our home a haven
of peace * like your own home at Nazareth. We take you as our model. Help us to grow daily
in genuine love of God and neighbor * so that justice and peace may happily reign * in the
entire family of mankind. Amen.

done for us. Grant that we may be truly sorry for our sins* and do penance for them.
Through you, we thank the Eternal Father for the gift of life. He has created all the wonderful
things of this world for us. May we learn to use them well* so that through them* we may

MEMORARE (page 37)

PRAYER FOR FINANCIAL AID

Realizing, dear Mother, that you are our Perpetual Help, not only in spiritual but also in tem-
poral necessities, we ask you to help us in our present financial worry. Because of unavoidable
circumstances which have arisen in our lives, we are in great want and financial embarrass-
ment, since we are unable to meet our honest debts. We are not asking, dearest Mother of
Perpetual Help, for wealth, if the possession of it is not in accordance with the Will of God;
we merely ask you for that assistance which will help us settle our present obligations. We
believe, dear Mother of God, that you are extremely kind and generous to all your loving and
devoted children. We plead with you, therefore, dear Mother, obtain for us the help we urgent-
ly need. We are trying so earnestly to solve our problem but we believe in your powerful inter-
cession with Our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Son and Our Redeemer. Amen.

TEMPTATION
Mary, my Mother, your love for us could not be greater or more powerful. You are rich in love
and your power brings us relief. You want everyone to be saved. I beg you therefore, protect
me in temptation and strengthen me when I weaken. I struggle daily to be faithful to Jesus
your Son. Help me my Mother at every moment. But above all take my hand when you see
that I am weakening and about to fall. I will have to battle with temptation till the day I die.
My Lady, you are my hope, my refuge, my strength; never let me lose the grace of God. In
every temptation I resolve to turn to you at once and pray; Mary help me. (St. Alphonsus)

 NOVENA TO THE MOST SACRED HEART OF JESUS

OPENING SONG
O Sacred Heart (page 146)

OPENING PRAYER
Divine Jesus you have said, “ask and you shall receive; seek and you shall find; knock
and it shall be opened unto you.” Behold me kneeling under Your feet, filled with a lively
faith and confidence in the promises dictated to by Your Sacred Heart and pronounced by
Your adorable lips, I come to ask this favor: (here silently mention your petition). To whom
can I turn, if not to you whose heart is the source of all graces and merits? Where should I
seek, if not in the treasure which contains all the riches of Your kindness and mercy?

Where must I knock if not at the door through which God gives himself to us and
through which God gives himself to us and through which we go to God? I have recourse to
you, Heart of Jesus. In you I find consolation when afflicted, protection when persecuted,
strength when burdened with trials, and light in doubt in darkness.
Dear Jesus, I firmly believe that You can grant me the grace I implore, even though it
should require a miracle. You have only to will it and my prayer will be granted. I admit that I
am most unworthy of Your favors, but this is not a reason for me to be discouraged. You are
the God of mercy and You will not refuse a contrite heart. Cast upon me a look of mercy, I
beg of You, and Your kind heart will find in my miseries and weakness a reason for granting
my prayer.
O Sacred Heart of Jesus, whatever may be Your decision with regard to my request, I
will never stop adoring, loving, praising and serving you. My Jesus, be pleased to accept my

61
act of perfect resignation to the decrees of Your adorable Heart which I sincerely desire may
be fulfilled in and by me and all Your creatures forever. Sacred heart of Jesus, I know that
there is but one thing impossible to You; to be without pity for those who are suffering or in
distress. Look upon me, I beg of You, dear Jesus, and grant me the grace for which I humbly
implore You, through the Immaculate Heart of Your most sorrowful Mother. You have en-
trusted me to her as her child, and her prayers are all-powerful with you. Amen.

PRAYER TO THE SACRED HEART OF JESUS

O Lord, I pray that in my home, peace, quiet, and well-being may prevail under the
shadow of Your Holy mantle. Bless and protect, my endeavors, my enterprises and all those
who depend on me and everything that I long for and desire. Banish from my mind and my
heart falls ideas and evil sentiments. Infuse in me a love of my neighbor and grant me the
means to help him. Give me resignation and fortitude of spirit in time of adversity, so that I
may rise above the contradictions of life. Guide and protect O Lord, my own who are exposed
to the contingencies of the world. Do not forget, O my Jesus, our loved ones with whom we
are united in life and whose departure caused us sorrow, at the same time consoled by the
thought that, because they remained faithful to You, You did not abandon them at the hour of
death. Have pity on them O Lord, and bring them their eternal glory in heaven. Amen.

EFFICACIOUS NOVENA TO THE SACRED HEART OF JESUS

I. O my Jesus, You have said: “Truly I say to you, ask and you will receive, seek
and you will find, knock and it will be opened unto you.” Behold I knock, I
seek and ask for the grace of… (here, name your request)
Our Father… Hail Mary… Glory Be…
Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place all my trust in you.

I now ask for the grace of… (here, name your request)

Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place all my trust in you.

O Sacred Heart of Jesus, for whom it not impossible not to have compassion on the
afflicted, have pity on us miserable sinners and grant us the grace which we ask of you,
through the sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary, your tender Mother and ours. (Say the
Hail, Holy Queen and add: St. Joseph foster father of Jesus, pray for us.)

 THE WAY OF THE CROSS (TRADITIONAL)
OPENING PRAYER
Mary, my mother, you were the first to live the Way of the Cross. You felt every pain and
every humiliation. You were unafraid of the ridicule heaped upon you by the crowds. Your
eyes were ever on Jesus and his pain. Is that the secret of your miraculous strength? How did
your loving heart bear such a burden and such a weight? Aa you watched him stumble and
fall, were tortured by the memory of all the yesterdays – His birth, His hidden life and His
ministry? You were so desirous of every one loving Him. What a heartache it was to see so
many hate Him – hate with a diabolical fury. Take my hand as I make this Way of the Cross.
Inspire me with those thoughts that will make me realize how much He loves me. Give me
light to apply each station to my daily life and to remember my neighbor's needs in this Way
of the Pain. Obtain for me the grace to understand the mystery, wisdom and the Divine Love
as I go from scene to scene. Grant that my heart, like yours, may be pierced through by the
sight of His sorrow and the misery and that I may determine never to offend Him again. What
a price He paid to cover my sins, to open the gates of heaven for me and to fill my soul with
His own Spirit. Sweet Mother, let us travel this way together and grant that the love in my
poor heart may give you some slight consolation. Amen.
The First Station: JESUS IS CONDEMNED TO DEATH
We adore You, O Christ, and we bless You,
-because by your Holy Cross You have redeemed the world.
My Jesus, the world still has you on trial. It keeps asking who
you are and why you make the demands you make. It asks over
and over the question, if you are God's Son, why do you permit
the world to be in the state it is in? Why are you so silent?
Though the arrogance of the world angers me, I must admit
that silently, in the depths of my soul, I too have this questions.
Your humility frustrates me and makes me uncomfortable.
Your strength before Pilate as You drank deeply from the pow-
er of the -Father, give me the answer to my question – The Father's will. The Father permits
many sufferings in my life but it is all for my good. If only I too could be silent in the face of
the worldly prudence – steadfast in the faith when all just seems lost – calm when accused
unjustly – free from tyranny of human respect – ready to do the Father's Will no matter how
difficult.
Silent Jesus, give us all the graces we need to stand tall in the face of the ridicule of the world.
Give the poor the strength not to succumb to their privation but to be ever aware of their digni-
ty as sons of God. Grant that we might not bend to the crippling disease of worldly glory but
be willing to be deprived of all things rather than lose your friendship. My Jesus, though we
are accused daily of being fools, let the vision of Quiet Dignity standing before monstrous
Injustice, give us all the courage to your followers. Amen.
Our Father…, Hail Mary…, Glory be…
Lord Jesus Crucified, have mercy on us.

67
 Second station: JESUS CARRIES HIS CROSS
We adore You, O Christ, and we bless You,
- because by your Holy Cross You have redeemed the world.
How could any human impose such a burden upon Your torn
and bleeding body, Lord Jesus? Each movement of the cross
drove the thorns deeper into your head. How did you keep the
hatred from welling up in your heart? How did the injustice of
it all not ruffle your peace? The Father's will was hard on you
– why do I complain when it is hard on me? I see justice and
am frustrated and when my plans to alleviate it seems futile, I
despair. When I see those burdened with poverty suffer ever
more and cross is added to cross my heart is far from serene. I utterly fail to see the dignity of
the cross as it is carried with love. I would so much be rather without it. My worldly concept is
that suffering, like food, should be shared equally. How ridiculous I am, dear Lord. Just as we
do not all need the same amount of material food, neither do we need the same amount of
spiritual food and that is what the cross is in my life, isn’t it – spiritual food proportional to my
needs. Amen.
Our Father…, Hail Mary…, Glory be…
Lord Jesus Crucified, have mercy on us.
The Third Station: JESUS FALLS THE FIRST TIME
We adore You, O Christ, and we bless You,
-because by your Holy Cross You have redeemed the world.
My Jesus, it seems to me, that as God, You would have carried
Your cross without faltering, but you did not. You fell beneath
its weight to show me you understand when I fall. Is it pride
that makes me want to shine even in my pain? You were not
ashamed to fall – to admit the cross was heavy. There those in
world whom pride will not tolerate as I expected everyone to
be strong, yet I am weak. I am ashamed to admit failure in
anything.
If the Father permits failure in my life just as He permitted You to fall, then I must know there
is good in that failure which my mind will never comprehend. I must know there is good in
that failure which my mind will never comprehend. I must not concentrate on the eyes of oth-
ers as they rest upon me in my falls. Rather, I must reach up to touch that invisible hand and
drink in that invisible strength ever at my side.
Weak Jesus, help all men who try so hard to be good but whose nature is constantly opposed
to them walking straight and tall down the narrow road of life. Raise their heads to see the
glory that is to come rather than the misery of the present moment.
Your love for me gave you strength to rise from your fall. Look upon all those whom the
world considers unprofitable servants and give them the courage to be more concerned as to

68
how they stand before You, rather than their fellowmen. Amen.
Our Father…, Hail Mary…, Glory be…,
Lord Jesus Crucified, have mercy on us.
The Fourth Station: JESUS MEETS HIS AFFLICTED
MOTHER
We adore You, O Christ, and we bless You,
-because by your Holy Cross You have redeemed the world.
My Jesus, it was great sorrow to realize your pain caused Mary
so much grief. As Redeemer, You wanted her to share in Your
pain for mankind. When you glance at each other in unuttera-
ble suffering, what gave you both the courage to carry on with-
out the least alleviation – without anger at such injustice?
It seems as if you desired to suffer every possible pain to give
me an example of how to suffer when my time comes. What a humiliation for You when your
mother saw you in such pitiable state – weak – helpless – at the mercy of sinful men – holiness
exposed to evil in all hideousness.
Did every moment of that short moment seem like an eternity? As I see so much suffering in
the world, there are times I think it is all hopeless. There is an element of lethargy in my pray-
ers for mankind that says “I’ll pray, but what good will it do? The sick grow sicker and the
hungry starve.” I think of that glance between you and Mary – the glance that said, “Let us
give this misery to the Father for the salvation of souls. The Father’s power takes our pain and
frustration and renews souls, saves them for a new life – a life of eternal joy, eternal happi-
ness. It is worth it all.” Give perseverance to the sick so they can carry the cross of frustration
and agony with love and resignation for the salvation of others. Amen.
Our Father…, Hail Mary…, Glory be…,
Lord Jesus Crucified, have mercy on us.

The Fifth Station: SIMON HELPS JESUS CARRY HIS

CROSS
We adore You, O Christ, and we bless You,
-because by your Holy Cross You have redeemed the world.
My Jesus, your tormentors enlisted a Simon of Cyrene to help
you carry your cross. Your humility is beyond my comprehen-
sion. Your power upheld the whole universe and yet you per-
mit one of Your creatures to help you carry a cross. I imagine
Simon was reluctant to take part in Your shame. He had no
idea that all who watched and jeered at him would pass into
oblivion while his name would go down in history and eternity
as the one who helped his God in need. Is it not so with me,

69
dear Jesus? Even when I reluctantly carry my cross as Simon did, it benefits my soul.
If I keep my eyes on you and watch how you suffered, I will be able to bear my cross with
greater fortitude. Were you trying to tell all those who suffer from prejudice to have courage?
Was Simon a symbol of all those who are hated because of race, color and creed?
Simon wondered as he took those beams upon his shoulders, why he was chosen for such
heavy burden and now he knows. Help me Jesus, to trust your loving Providence as you per-
mit suffering to weave itself in and out of my life. Make me understand that you looked at it
and held it fondly before you passed it on to me. You watch me and give strength just as you
did Simon. When I enter your kingdom, I shall know as he knows, what marvels Your Cross
has wrought in my soul. Amen.
Our Father…, Hail Mary…, Glory be…,
Lord Jesus Crucified, have mercy on us.
The Sixth Station: VERONICA WIPES THE FACE OF
JESUS
We adore You, O Christ, and we bless You,
-because by your Holy Cross You have redeemed the world.
My Jesus, where were all the hundreds of peoples whose bod-
ies and souls were healed by you? Where were they when You
needed someone to give You the least of comfort? Ingratitude
must have borne down upon your heart and made the cross
nearly impossible to carry. There are times I too feel all my
efforts for your kingdom are futile and end in nothingness. Did
your eyes roam through the crowd for the comfort of just one
individual – one sign of pity – one sign of grief? My heart
thrills with a sad joy when I think of one woman, breaking away from fear and human respect
and offering you her thin veil to wipe your bleeding face. Your loving heart, ever watching for
the least sign of love, imprinted the image of your torn face upon it! How can you forget your-
self so completely and reward such a small act of kindness?
I must admit, I have been among those who were afraid to know you rather than like Veronica.
She did not care if the whole world knew she loved you. Heartbroken Jesus, give me that qual-
ity of the soul so necessary to witness to spread Your Word – to tell all people of your love for
them. Send many into your vineyard so the people of all nations may receive the Good News.
Imprint your Divine Image upon my soul and let the thin veil of my human nature bear a per-
fect resemblance to your loving Spirit. Amen.
Our Father…, Hail Mary…, Glory be…,
Lord Jesus Crucified, have mercy on us.

70
The Seventh Station: JESUS FALLS A SECOND TIME
We adore You, O Christ, and we bless You,
-because by your Holy Cross You have redeemed the world.
My Jesus, one of the beautiful qualities the people admired
You was the strength in time of ridicule – Your ability to rise
above the occasion. But now you fall a second time – appar-
ently conquered by the pain of the Cross. People who Judged
you by appearances made a terrible mistake. What looked like
weakness was unparalleled strength! I often judge by appear-
ances and how wrong I am most of the time. The world judges
entirely by this fraudulent method of discerning. It looks down upon those who apparently
have given their best and are now in need. It judges the poor as failures, the sick as useless and
the aged as a burden. How wrong that kind of judgement is in the light of your second fall!
Your greatest moment was your weakest one. Your greatest triumph was in failure. Your
greatest act of love was in desolation. Your greatest show of power was in utter lack of
strength that threw you to the ground. Weak and powerful Jesus, give me the grace to see be-
yond what is visible and be more aware of your wisdom in the midst of weakness. Give the
aged, sick, handicapped, retarded, deaf and blind the fruit of joy so they may ever be aware of
the Father’s gift and the vast difference between what the world sees and what the Father sees
that they may glory in their weakness so the power of God may be manifest. Amen.
Our Father…, Hail Mary…, Glory be…,
Lord Jesus Crucified, have mercy on us.

The Eighth Station: JESUS SPEAKS TO THE HOLY

WOMEN
We adore You, O Christ, and we bless You,
-because by your Holy Cross You have redeemed the world.
My Jesus, I am amazed at your compassion for others in your
time of need. When I suffer, I have a tendency to seek only of
myself but you forgot to yourself completely. When you see
the holy women weeping over your torments, you consoled
them and taught them to look deeper into your passion. You
wanted them to understand that the real evil to cry over was
the rejection you suffered from the chosen people - a people
set apart from everyother nation, who refused to accept God's Son.
The act of redemption would go on and no one would ever be able to take away your dignity
as son of God, the evil, greed, jealousy and ambition in the hearts of those who should have
recognized you was the issue to grieve over. To be so close to God made man and miss him
completely was the real crime.

71
My Jesus, I feel I do the same when strain gnats and then swallow camels - when I take out the
splinter in my brother's eye and forget beam in my own. It is such a gift - this gift of faith. It is
such a sublime grace to possess your own spirit. Why haven't I advanced in holiness of life? I
miss the many disguises you take open yourself and see only people, circumstances and hu-
man events, not the loving hand of the Father guiding all things. Help all those who are dis-
couraged, sick, lonely and old to recognize your presence in their midst. Amen.
Our Father…, Hail Mary…, Glory be…,
Lord Jesus Crucified, have mercy on us.
The Ninth Station: JESUS FALLS THE THIRD TIME
We adore You, O Christ, and we bless You,
-because by your Holy Cross You have redeemed the world.
My Jesus, even with the help of Simon you fell a third time.
Were you telling me that there may be times that I will fall
again and again despite the help of friends and loved ones?
There are times when the crosses you permit in my life are
more than I can bear. It is all the sufferings of a life time are
suddenly compressed into the present moment and it is more
than I can stand. Though it grieves my heart to see you so
weak and helpless, it is a comfort to my soul to know that you
understand my sufferings from your own experience. Your
love for me made you want to experience every kind of pain
just so I could have someone to look to for example and courage. When I cry out from the
depths of my soul, “This offering is more than I can bear,” do you whisper, “Yes, I under-
stand?” When I am discouraged after many falls, do you say in my innermost most being,
“Keep going, I know how hard it is to rise”?
There are many people who are sorely tried in body and soul with alcohol and drug weakness-
es who try and try and fall again and again. Through that humiliation of this third fall, give
them the courage and perseverance to take up their cross and follow you. Amen.

Our Father…, Hail Mary…, Glory be…,

Lord Jesus Crucified, have mercy on us.

The Tenth Station: JESUS IS STRIPPED OF HIS GAR-

MENTS
We adore You, O Christ, and we bless You,
-because by your Holy Cross You have redeemed the world.
It seems that every step to Calvary brought you fresh humilia-
tion, my Jesus. How your sensitive nature recoiled at being
stripped before a crowd of people. You desired to leave this
life as you entered it - completed detached from all the com-
72
forts of this world. You want to me to know without a doubt that you loved me with an unself-
ish love. Your love for me caused you nothing but pain and sorrow. You gave everything and
received nothing in return. Why do I find it so hard to be detached?
In your loving mind, dear Jesus, did you look up to the Father you stood there on that windy
hill, shivering from cold and shame and trembling from fear, and ask him to have mercy on
those who would violate their purity and the make love I mockery? Did you ask forgiveness
for those whose greed would make them lie, cheat and steal for a few pieces of cold silver?
Forgive us all, dear Jesus. Look upon the world with pity, for mankind has lost its way and the
principles of this world make lust a fun game and luxury a necessity. Detachment has become
merely another hardship of the poor and obedience the fault of the weak. Have mercy on us
and grant the people of this day the courage to see and know themselves and the light to
change. Amen.
Our Father…, Hail Mary…, Glory be…,
Lord Jesus Crucified, have mercy on us.
The Eleventh Station: JESUS IS NAILED TO THE CROSS
We adore You, O Christ, and we bless You,
-because by your Holy Cross You have redeemed the world.
It is hard to imagine a God being nailed to a cross by his own
creatures. It is even more difficult for my mind to understand a
love that permitted such a thing to happen! As those men drove
heavy nails into your hands and feet, dear Jesus, did you offer
the pain as reparation for some particular human weakness and
sin? Was the nail in your right hand for those who spend their
lives in dissipation and boredom?
Was the nail in your left hand in reparation for all consecrated
souls who live lukewarm lives? Were you stretching out your arms show us how much you
love us? As the feet that walked the hot, dusty roads were nailed fast, did they cramp up in a
deadly grip if pain to make preparation for all those who so nimbly run the broad road of sin
and self-indulgence? It seems, dear Jesus, Your love has held you bound hand and foot as your
heart pleads for a return of love. You seem to shout from the top of the hill “I love you – come
to me – see, I am held fast – I cannot hurt you – only you can hurt me.” How very hard is the
heart that can see such love and turn away. Is it not true I too have turned away when I did not
accept the Father's will with love? Teach me to keep my arms ever open to love, to forgive and
to render service – willing to be hurt rather than hurt, satisfied to love and not to be loved in
return. Amen.

Our Father…, Hail Mary…, Glory be…,

Lord Jesus Crucified, have mercy on us.

73
The Twelfth Station: JESUS DIES ON THE CROSS
We adore You, O Christ, and we bless You,
-because by your Holy Cross You have redeemed the world.
God is dead! No wonder the earth quaked, the sun hid itself,
the dead the rose and Mary stood in horror. Your human body
gave up its soul in death but your divinity, dear Jesus, contin-
ued to manifest its power. All creation rebelled as the Word
made flesh departed from this world. Man alone was too proud
to see and too stubborn to acknowledge truth.
Redemption was accomplished! Man would never have an
excuse to forget how much You loved him. The thief on your
right saw something he could not explain - he saw a man on a tree and knew He was God. His
need made him see his own guilt and Your innocence. The promise of eternal life made the
remaining hours of his torture endurable.
A common thief responded to your love with deep faith, hope and love. He saw more than his
eyes envisioned – he felt a presence he could not explain and would not argue with. He was in
need and accepted the way of God designed to help him. Forgive our pride, dear Jesus as we
spend hours speculating, days arguing and often a lifetime in rejecting Your death which is a
sublime mystery. Have pity in those whose intelligence leads them to pride because they never
feel the need to reach out to the man of sorrows for consolation. Amen.
Our Father…, Hail Mary…, Glory be…,
Lord Jesus Crucified, have mercy on us.
The Thirteenth Station: JESUS IS TAKEN DOWN FROM THE CROSS
We adore You, O Christ, and we bless You,
-because by your Holy Cross You have redeemed the world.
My Jesus, it was with deep grief that Mary finally took you
into her arms and saw all the wounds sin had inflicted upon
you. Mary Magdalene looked upon your dead body with hor-
ror. Nicodemus, the man so full of human respect, who came
to you by night, suddenly received the courage to help Joseph
take you down from the Cross. You are once more surrounded
by only a few followers. When loneliness and failure cross my
path, let me think of this lonely moment and this total failure –
failure in the eyes of men. How wrong they were – how mis-
taken their concept of success! The greatest act of love was given in desolation and the most
successful mission accomplished and finished when all seemed lost. Is this not true in my life,
dear Jesus? I judge my failures harshly. I demand perfection instead of holiness. My idea of
success is for all to end well – according to my liking.
Give all men the grace to see that doing your will is more important than success. If failure is
permitted for my greater good, then teach me how to use it to my advantage. Let me say as
you once said, that to do the will of the Father is my food. Let not the standards of this world
74
make possession of me or destroy the good you have set for me – to be Holy and to accom-
plish the Father’s will with great love. Let me accept praise or blame, success or failure with
equal serenity. Amen.
Our Father…, Hail Mary…, Glory be…,
Lord Jesus Crucified, have mercy on us.
The Fourteenth Station: JESUS IS LAID IN THE SEPULCHER
We adore You, O Christ, and we bless You,
-because by your Holy Cross You have redeemed the world.
My Jesus, you were laid to rest in a stranger’s tomb. You were
born with nothing of this world's goods and you died detached
from everything. When you came into the world, man slept
and angels sang and now as you leave it, creation is silent and
only a few weep. Both events were clothed with obscurity. The
majority of men leave in such a way. Most of us live and die
knowing and known by only a few. Were your trying to tell us,
dear Jesus, how very important our lives are just because we
are accomplishing the Father’s will? Will we ever learn the
lesson of humility that makes us content with who we are, where we are and what we are?
Will our faith be ever strong enough to see power in weakness and good in the sufferings of
our lives? Will our hope be trusting enough to rely on your providence even when we are no-
where to lay our head? Will our love be ever strong enough not to take scandal in the cross?
My Jesus, hide my soul in your heart as you lie in the sepulcher alone. Let my heart be as a
fire to keep you warm. Let my desire to know and love you be like a torch to light up the dark-
ness. Let my soul sing softly in a hymn of repentant love as the hours pass and your resurrec-
tion is at hand. Let me rejoice dear Jesus, with all the angels in a hymn of praise and thanks-
giving for so great love – so great a God – so great a day! Amen.
Our Father…, Hail Mary…, Glory be…,
Lord Jesus Crucified, have mercy on us.

CLOSING PRAYER
My Jesus, I have traveled your way of the cross. It seems so real and I feel so shamed.
I complain of my sufferings and find obedience to the Father’s will difficult. My mind
blogged down by the poverty, sickness, starvation, greed and hatred in the world. There are
many innocent people who suffer so unjustly. There are those born with physical and mental
defects. Do we understand that you continue to carry your cross in the minds and bodies of
each human being? Help me to see the Father’s will in every incident of my daily life. This is
what you did – you saw the Father’s will in your persecutors, your enemies and your pain.
You saw a beauty in the cross and embraced it as a desired treasure. My worldly mind is
dulled by injustice and suffering and I lose of the glory that is to come. Help me to trust the
Father and to realize that there is something great behind the most insignificant suffering.
There is someone lifting my cross to fit my shoulders – there is divine wisdom in all the petty
75
annoyances that irk my soul every day. Teach me the lesson contained in my cross, the wis-
dom of its necessity, the beauty of its variety and the fortitude that accompanies even the
smallest cross. Mary, my mother, obtain for me the grace to be Jesus to my neighbor and to
see my neighbor in Jesus.
For the intentions of the Holy Father and our Bishop
Our Father…, Hail Mary…, Glory be…,
For the intentions of the Church and of the State
Our Father…, Hail Mary…, Glory be…,
For the poor souls in purgatory
Our Father…, Hail Mary…, Glory be…,
Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord.
And let your perpetual light shine upon them.
May they rest in peace.
Amen.

76
 THE WAY OF THE CROSS (NEW VERSION)
OPENING PRAYER
LEADER: Lord Jesus Christ, as we gather here to meditate on your Paschal Mystery, grant us
all the grace to detest sin as you did, and to spend our life for our neighbor as you taught us
through your example. Thus shall we be able to share not only in your sufferings but also in
your resurrection. You who live and reign forever and ever.
All: Amen!

STATIONS OF THE CROSS

The First Station: THE LAST SUPPER
We adore you, O Christ, and we praise you.
Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.

READING
The Lord Jesus on the night in which he was betrayed took bread,
and after he had given thanks, broke it and said, “This is my
body, which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me.” In the
same way, after the supper, he took the cup saying, “This cup is
the new covenant in my blood. Do this, whenever you drink it, in
remembrance of me.” Every time, then, you eat this bread and
drink this cup, you proclaim the death of the Lord until he comes!
(1 Cor 11:23:26)
(Pause for silent reflection)
PRAYER
Lord Jesus, you loved us to the utmost. * You loved us to the end. * You remain in the Eucha-
rist to be for us * the food and drink that give eternal life. * You remain with us * to be the
continuous sign * of God’s saving presence in all circumstances of life.
Forgive us, Lord, * for the times we have failed to appreciate * your gift of self to us * and
your loving presence in the Eucharist.

Our Father… Hail Mary… Glory be…

Lord Jesus crucified, Have mercy on us!

The Second Station: THE AGONY IN THE GARDEN

We adore you, O Christ, and we praise you.
Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.

READING
Jesus went out and made his way, as was his custom, to the Mount
of Olives. His disciples accompanied him. On reaching the place
he said to them, “Pray that you may not be out to the test.” He
withdrew from them about a stone’s throw, then went down on his
knees and prayed in these words: “Father, if it is your will, take this
cup from me; yet not my will but yours be done.” In his anguish he
prayed with even greater intensity, and his sweat became like drops
of blood falling to the ground. Then he rose from prayer and came
to his disciples, only to find them asleep, exhausted with grief. (Lk
22:39-42.44-45) (Pause for silent reflection)

77
PRAYER
It was a long, terrible night, Lord. And not one of your disciples found the strength to keep
you company in your agony. Your only strength was your determination * to do the Father’s
will at all costs. And your solitary agony continues, * even to this day, * in the loneliness of
those who have no friends, * no home, no hope, no future * …Our society is filled with them,
* but we pretend not to know, * and slumber noisily while they die * victims of neglect.

Our Father… Hail Mary… Glory be…

Lord Jesus crucified, Have mercy on us!
The Third Station: JESUS BEFORE THE SANHEDRIN
We adore you, O Christ, and we praise you.
Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.

READING
The high priest stood up before the court and interrogated Jesus: “
Are you the Messiah, the Son of the Blessed One?” Then Jesus
answered: “I am. And you will see the Son of Man seated at the
right hand of the Almighty and coming with the clouds of heav-
en.” At that the high priest tore his robes and said: “What further
need do we have of witnesses? You have heard the blasphemy.
What is your verdict?” They all concurred in the verdict “guilty,”
with its sentence of death. As soon as it was daybreak the chief priests, with the elders and
scribes bound Jesus, led him away, and handed him over to Pilate. (Mk 14:60-64.15:1) (Pause
for silent reflection)
PRAYER
Lord Jesus, * you are the judge of all human beings, * yet you accepted to be judged by biased
judges. * You are the all-holy, * the only innocent on earth, * yet you endured the condemna-
tion of obstinate sinners …
And the unfair trial goes on, * duplicated in all the unjust sentences * through which innocent
people are condemned and rascals are acquitted. * You are still the victim of these injustices *
perpetuated against the weak, the defenseless, * the voiceless of our society, * in whom you
continue to live and suffer.
Our Father… Hail Mary… Glory be…
Lord Jesus crucified, Have mercy on us!

The Fourth Station: SCOURGING AND CROWNING

WITH THORNS
We adore you, O Christ, and we praise you.
Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.

READING
Pilate asked the crowd: “What am I to do with Jesus, the so-called
Messiah?” They all shouted, “Crucify him!” He said, “Why, what
crime has he committed?” But they shouted louder, “Crucify
him!” After having Jesus scourged, Pilate delivered him to be

78
crucified. Then the soldiers, weaving a crown out of thorns, fixed it on his head, and stuck a
reed in his right hand. Then they began to mock him by dropping to their knees before him,
saying, “ Hail, king of the Jews!”(Mt 27:22-20, passim) (Pause for silent reflection)

PRAYER
Instigated by your enemies, * the mob wanted you dead, dear Jesus, * and Pilate didn’t think it
was worthwhile * to uphold justice and protect your innocence. * So the mad mob had its way.
* The Roman soldiers had their way * as they reduced your body to a bleeding wound * and
crowned your head with thorns and mockery.
And you didn’t open your mouth in protest. *You endured it all, * meek, like a lamb to be
slaughtered; * silent, like the millions of exploited simple people, * oppressed by the ruthless,
* while many of us turn a blind eye * to such blatant injustices …

Our Father… Hail Mary… Glory be…

Lord Jesus crucified, Have mercy on us!

The Fifth Station: JESUS RECIEVES THE CROSS

We adore you, O Christ, and we praise you.
Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.

READING
When they had finished mocking Jesus, they stripped him of the
cloak, dressed him in his own clothes, and led him off to crucify
him. (Mt 27:31) (Pause for silent reflection)

PRAYER
Dear Lord, * the cross was the punishment for criminals and insur-
gents. * Who could believe that it was placed on the shoulders of
the Son of God, * the source of all holiness and goodness? And yet, you accepted it in all hu-
mility * because you knew that such was the condition * to save us from eternal damnation.
The cross you accepted to carry was our cross * - the cross of our sins, * the cross of our
weaknesses, our discouragements, * our failures, our wickedness … To this very day, * inno-
cent men, women and children are made to bear * the cross of other people’s faults, greed,
pride, lust…
Grant us the grace, dear Lord, * never to burden others with our moral defects, * and bravely
to carry with you * the cross of our daily duty.

Our Father… Hail Mary… Glory be…

Lord Jesus crucified, Have mercy on us!

79
 The Sixth Station: JESUS FALLS UNDER THE WIEGHT OF
THE CROSS
We adore you, O Christ, and we praise you.
-Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.
READING
As he staggered along the road to Calvary, Jesus felt crushed by the
cross he was carrying on his shoulders. Much more, perhaps, he felt
overwhelmed by the savage jeering of the mob that kept insulting
him as if he were a criminal… Exhausted by the sleepless night and
the tortures he had already endured, Jesus fell to the ground under
the weight of the cross and the moral tortures he had suffered.
(Pause for silent reflection)
PRAYER
The distance from the Praetorium to Calvary was not long * - just a few hundred meters. But it
took you long, Lord, to walk that stretch, staggering painfully * and groping in vain for help
… * Your strength had long deserted you. * The road was uneven. * The crowd was merci-
less. * The cross was becoming heavier * and heavier, till it weighed you down… * down to
the dust! Like you, Lord, * so many of us stagger and fall * along the hard way of the cross *
that life becomes when trials and failures * overwhelm us and crush us to the ground.
When we stumble and fall, * Lord, be our support! And when our brothers and sisters seem
unable to carry the burden of their trials, * Lord, give us a compassionate heart, * that we may
not add insult to injury.
Our Father… Hail Mary… Glory be…

The Seventh Station: SIMON OF CYRENE CARRIES THE

CROSS OF JESUS
We adore you, O Christ, and we praise you.
Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.

READING
A man named Simon of Cyrene, the father of Alexander and Rufus,
was coming in from the fields. The soldiers pressed him into ser-
vice to carry the cross of Jesus. (Mk 15:21) (Pause for silent reflec-
tion)

PRAYER
Simon just happened to pass there * on his way home from the fields. * He was forced to
make a detour * - a detour that changed the course if his life. * Forced to carry your cross,
Lord Jesus, * he himself became a victim of oppression and injustice. * He experienced a
share of your pain, Lord, * and thus discovered what life can be * if one wants to help others.

80
Send us more simon of Cyrene, Lord. * Send us people who have the courage * to shoulder
the crosses of others in brotherly solidarity and patience. * Make us like Simon, Lord. * Grant
us the strength and generosity to carry one another’s burden, * for our society is crowded with
poor Christs * crushed by crosses of all shapes and weights.

The Eighth Station: JESUS MEETS THE PIOUS

WOMEN OF JERUSALEM
We adore you, O Christ, and we praise you.
Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.

READING
A great crowd of people followed Jesus, including some women
who beat their breasts and lamented over him. Jesus turned to them
and said: “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me. Weep for
yourselves and for your children. The days are coming when they
will say, ‘Happy are the sterile, the wombs that never bore and the
breasts that never nursed.’ Then they will begin saying to the mountains, ‘Fall on us!’ and to
the hills, ‘Cover us!’ If they do these things in the green wood, what will happen in the
dry?” (Lk 23:27-31) (Pause for silent reflection)

PRAYER
Lord Jesus, * those women of Jerusalem were surely sincere in their sorrow for you. * They
were brave enough to follow you along the road to Calvary. * But you directed their attention
to the cause of your suffering * - SIN, and the punishment which unrepentance would bring
down on all.
We wish we were as sincere as they were * in lamenting the unfair treatment to which you
were subjected. * And we wish likewise, that we were equally sensitive * to the suffering of
our neighbor * - especially the squatters, the jobless, the homeless, * and all the other victims
of human injustice and exploitation. * For it is all these forms of sin * which bring down
God’s well-deserved punishments on our society.

Our Father… Hail Mary… Glory be…

Lord Jesus crucified, Have mercy on us!

The Ninth Station: JESUS IS NAILED TO THE CROSS

We adore you, O Christ, and we praise you.
Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.

READING
When they came to the place called “the Skull,” they crucified
Jesus there together with the two criminals. Jesus said, “Father,
forgive them; they do not know what they are doing.” The people
stood there watching and the leaders kept jeering at him, saying,

81
“He saved others, Let him save himself if he is the Messiah of God, the chosen one!”(Lk
23:33-35) (Pause for silent reflection)

PRAYER
Lord, * those hands of yours which caressed the children, * blessed the sick and chased de-
mons away * are now nailed mercilessly to the wood of the cross. * Your feet which had taken
you from village to village * in an effort to bring the Good News of the Kingdom to all, * are
now immobilized forever… * your enemies dare you to come down from the cross. * But you
don’t. Not because of the nails, but because of your love for us sinners. It was love which
brought you there. * It is love that keeps you there.
Lord Jesus, * grant us the grace to do our duties * out of love and with love, * even when all
this resembles the pain of the crucifixion.

Our Father… Hail Mary… Glory be…

Lord Jesus crucified, Have mercy on us!

The Tenth Station: THE REPENTANT THIEF

We adore you, O Christ, and we praise you.
Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.

READING
One of the criminals hanging in crucifixion blasphemed Jesus:
“Aren’t you the Messiah? Then save yourself and us!” But the
other one rebuked him: “Have you no fear of God, seeing that you
are under the same sentence? We deserve it, after all. We are only
paying the price for what we’ve done, but this man has done noth-
ing wrong.” He then said, “Jesus, remember me when you enter
upon your reign.” And Jesus replied, “I assure you: this day you will be with me in para-
dise.” (Lk 23:39-43) (Pause for silent reflection)

PRAYER
Lord Jesus, * there was so much sincerity * in the public confession of the repentant thief… *
so much faith and trust * in the words he addressed to you. * The man really believed in your
mercy. * He believed in your kingdom. * And you did not disappoint him.
We often meet people who have done wrong * and would like to begin a new life. * Lord,
grant that we may always be as well disposed to them * as you were to the repentant thief. * In
this way, we, too, * will end the course of our life * sharing the faith and trust of the good
thief, * and hearing your promise of eternal life.

Our Father… Hail Mary… Glory be…

Lord Jesus crucified, Have mercy on us!

82
The Eleventh Station:
MARY AND JOHN AT THE FOOT OF THE CROSS
We adore you, O Christ, and we praise you.
Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.

READING
Near the cross of Jesus there stood his mother, his mother’s sisters,
Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. Seeing his mother
there with the disciple whom he loved, Jesus said to his mother,
“Woman, there is your son.” In turn he said to the disciple, “There
is your mother.” From that hour onward, the disciple took Mary
into his care. (Jn 19:25-27) (Pause for silent reflection)

PRAYER
“Suffering, like a sword, will pierce your heart,” * had prophesied old Simeon. * On Calvary,
Mary experienced the fulfillment of that prophesy in its fullness. * And once again she said in
her heart, * “Let it be done to me as you said.”
No one on earth loved you as your Mother did, Lord; * nor did you love any other person on
earth as you loved her. * And she was there, * witness and sharer of your redeeming suffering.
* By entrusting her to John, you provided for the remaining days of your Mother. * By en-
trusting John to her, you provided for all mankind, * for you gave us all * your very own
mother as our mother. May we be as loving children to her as you were.

Our Father… Hail Mary… Glory be…

Lord Jesus crucified, Have mercy on us!

The Twelfth Station: JESUS DIES ON THE CROSS

We adore you, O Christ, and we praise you.
Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.

READING
It was now around midday, and darkness came over the whole land
until mid afternoon with an eclipse of the sun. Jesus said: “I am
thirsty.” They stuck a sponge soaked in wine on some hyssop and
raised it to his lips. When Jesus took the wine he said: “Now it is
finished.” He uttered a loud cry and said, “Father, into your hands I
commend my spirit.” After he said this, he died. (Lk 23:44,46; Jn
19:28-30) (Pause for silent reflection)

PRAYER
We were all condemned to die because of our sins, * and you took upon yourself * the death
penalty that you alone did not deserve.
You had only one life, dear Lord, * life all of us, * and you gave it up of your own free will, *

83
that we might live forever. * It was our sins, it was your love for us that killed you, * dearest
Jesus.
Before you breathed your last * you said you were thirsty - * thirsty for love. * Today we offer
you * the solace of our repentant love, Lord. * We want to love you * also for the days when
we failed to do so. We want to love you for all those who refuse to love. * And may we, at the
end of our stormy life, * die confidently pronouncing your last words, * “Father, into your
hands I commend my spirit!”

Our Father… Hail Mary… Glory be…

Lord Jesus crucified, Have mercy on us!

The Thirteenth Station: JESUS IS LAID IN THE TOMB

We adore you, O Christ, and we praise you.
Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.

READING
When evening fell, a wealthy man – Joseph of Arithmathea, arrived.
He was another of Jesus’ disciples, and had gone to request the body
of Jesus. Thereupon Pilate issued an order for its release. Taking the
body, Joseph wrapped it in fresh linen, and laid it in his own tomb
which had been hewn from a formation of rock. Then he rolled a
huge stone across the entrance of the tomb and went away. (Mt 27:57
-60) (Pause for silent reflection)

PRAYER
Lord Jesus, * the dark night of death has engulfed you. * The only bright lights * are the ten-
der love of your Mother, * the faithfulness of John * and the friendship of Joseph of Arith-
mathea and a few others. * You are laid in the tomb * like a precious treasure placed in a
chest; * like a seed hidden in the soil.
Your burial gives meaning and hope to our burials. * Thanks to you, * they have become the
tranquil sleep in the lap of mother earth, * trustfully awaiting the joyful awakening * when the
dawn of our resurrection * will break the fetters of death forever.

Our Father… Hail Mary… Glory be…

Lord Jesus crucified, Have mercy on us!

The Fourteenth Station: JESUS RISES FROM THE DEAD

We adore you, O Christ, and we praise you.
Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.

READING
After the sabbath, as the first day of the week was dawning, Mary
Magdalene came with the other Mary to inspect the tomb. Suddenly

84
there was a mighty earthquake, as the angel of the Lord descended from heaven. He came to
the stone, rolled it back, and sat on it. Then the angel spoke, addressing the women: “Do not
be frightened. I know you are looking for Jesus the crucified. He is not here. He has been
raised, exactly as he promised. Go quickly and tell his disciples, “He has been raised from the
dead.’” (Mt 28:1-2, 5-6) (Pause for silent reflection)

PRAYER
Jesus, * your holy body could not undergo the corruption of the sepulcher. * The tomb could
not hold you longer than it was needed * to prove that your death was real. * Now the shat-
tered seals, * the entrance stone rolled back, * the testimony of the angel * prove that our res-
urrection is real. It also proves in advance * that we too shall rise.
Your resurrection, Lord, * is the pattern of our resurrection even now. * It is a challenge to all
of us to rise, * from the death of sin to the life of grace.
Jesus, you are the Lord of the living. * Thank you, Lord, * for dying for us. * Thank you for
rising for us.

Our Father… Hail Mary… Glory be…

Lord Jesus crucified, Have mercy on us!

CLOSING PRAYER
All-powerful and ever-living God, your only Son died for our sins and rose triumphantly from
the dead. In your goodness, raise up your faithful people to be one with him in the eternal life
of heaven, where he lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever.
Amen.

 EXAMINATION OF CONSCIENCE
Make a short examination of conscience before going to rest at night. Two or three minutes
are enough. Follow these steps:

1. Humble yourself in the presence of God.

Tell him: "Lord, if you will, you can make me clean."

2. Ask for light to acknowledge your defects and virtues, and to see the dangers
and good occasions surrounding you. Ask for repentance, amendment and encouragement.

3. Examine your conscience briefly on these points:

-What have I done wrong? With God, with my neighbor, with myself?
-What have I done right?
-What could I have done better?

4. Sorrow. Ask pardon from our Lord.

Tell him: "A contrite and humble heart, O God, you will not despise" or
"Lord, you know all things, you know that I love you."
You may say the Act of Contrition, the Confiteor, or Psalm 50 (Miserere).

5. Resolution. Make a very concrete resolution for tomorrow:

-avoiding some specific faults
-staying away from danger
-exerting special effort to practice some virtue
-taking advantage of some occasion of improvement.

ACT OF CONTRITION
O my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended you, and I detest all my sins, because of
your just punishments, but most of all because they offend you, my God, who are all-good and
deserving of all my love. I firmly resolve, with the help of your grace, to sin no more and to
avoid the near occasions of sin.

-Do I take care of those details of modesty and decency which are the safeguards of purity?

If you remember other grievous sins besides those indicated here, mention them in your Con-
fession. For mortal sins, generally like those in the above list, you should tell the number of
times, at least approximately, or otherwise how frequently you did them each day, week,
month or year.

100
Be truly sorry for your sins. This is even more important than recalling your sins. This is not
difficult if you remember that for one mortal sin, you could have been, now and forever, in the
fire of hell, without any hope to attain anymore the eternal bliss and glory of heaven. You owe
it to the mercy of God, your loving Father, who saw your misery and did not punish you at
once but waited for your return. He receives you, embraces and kisses you again, and forgets
all your ingratitude. He is the same heavenly Father who sent His Only Begotten Son, Jesus, to
suffer and die for your sins. How could we help not to love Him, and be truly sorry for our
ingratitude? Be sorry for having lost by your sins the reward of heaven, and deserved the pun-
ishment of hell (Imperfect Contrition); but above all, be sorry for having offended your loving
Father in heaven, and your merciful Savior and Redeemer, Jesus Crucified (Perfect Contri-
tion).

To be sure that your sorrow is true and genuine, resolve firmly in your heart that you will
prefer to die rather than sin. You need not promise that you will not fall again into sin. We
know our great weakness and proneness to sin. Trusting in God, resolve now to try your best
in the future to avoid sin. Sins and temptation may continue to attract us; but our will should
be determined to detest and reject them.

This is all the preparation that is needed. Before a Crucifix, if possible, sincerely pray the
Act of Contrition: (page 97)

A Guide to Confession
1. You always have the option to go to confession anonymously, that is, behind a screen or
face to face, if you so desire.
2. After the priest greets you in the name of Christ, make the sign of the cross. He may
choose to recite a reading from Scripture, after which you say: “Bless me Father for I have
sinned. It has been (state how long) since my last confession . These are my sins.”
3. Tell your sins simply and honestly to the priest. You might even want to discuss the cir-
cumstances and the root causes of your sins and ask the priest for advice or direction.
4. Listen to the advice the priest gives you and accept the penance from him. Then make the
Act of Contrition for your sins.
5. The priest will then dismiss you with the words of praise: “Give thanks to the Lord for He
is Good. You respond: “For His mercy endures forever.” The priest will then conclude
with: “The Lord has freed you from your sins. Go in peace.” And you respond by saying:
“Thanks be to God.”
6. Spend some time with Our Lord thanking and praising Him for the gift of His mercy. Try
to perform your penance as soon as possible.

101
 RITE OF CONFESSION
After the customary greetings, the penitent makes the sign of the cross:
In nómine Patris et Fílii, et In the name of the Father, and of the
Spíritus Sancti. Amen. Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
The priest urges the penitent to have confidence in God. The priest may say:
Dóminus sit in corde tuo, ut in ánimo May the Lord be in your heart and help
contrito confiteáris peccata tua. you to confess your sins with true sorrow.

Either the priest or the penitent may read or say by heart some words taken from the Holy
Scripture about the mercy of God and repentance, e.g.:
Dómine, tu omnia nosti; Lord, you know all things; you know
tu scis quia amo te. that I love you. (John 21: 17)

The penitent accuses himself of his sins. The priest gives the opportune advice, imposes the
penance on him, and invites the penitent to manifest his contrition. The penitent may say for
example:
Dómine Iesu, Fili Dei, Lord Jesus, Son of God,
miserere mei peccatoris. Have mercy on me, a sinner.
The priest gives him the absolution:
Deus Pater misericordiárum, God, the Father of mercies, through the death
qui per mortem et resurrectiónem Fílii and resurrection of His Son has reconciled
sui mundum sibi reconciliávit et the world to Himself and sent the Holy Spirit
Spíritum Sanctum effúdit in among us for the forgiveness of sins; through

Et ego te absolvo a peccatis tuis in of the Son, + and of the Holy Spirit.
nómine Patris, et Filii, +
et Spíritus Sancti.
The penitent answers:
Amen. Amen.
The priest dismisses the penitent with this or any of the alternative formulae:
Pássio Dómini nostri lesu Christi, May the passion of our Lord, Jesus Christ,
intercéssio Beatæ Maríæ Virginis the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary
et ómnium sanctórum, and of all the saints, whatever good you do
