Our Lady of Sorrows

September is the month of Our Lady of Sorrows, also called Our Lady of the Seven Sorrows. This title focuses on Mary's intense suffering during the Passion of Her Son, Jesus. Father Chris Alar, MIC, explains why the feast, celebrated on Sept. 15, is one of the most popular Marian feasts in the Catholic Church, and notes its special connection to Our Lady of Kibeho in Rwanda. Then hear the story of Daniel Hidalgo, who struggled with sin in his life but ultimately found redemption through the sorrow of the Cross.

Chris Alar, MIC, and the Marian Fathers and Brothers from the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy on our weekly show, "Living Divine Mercy," airing on EWTN every Wednesday at 6:30 pm ET, with an encore presentation on Mondays at 9:00 am ET.  Through teaching segments, Bible and St. Faustina Diary excerpts, as well as real-life examples of people who are living Divine Mercy in their lives, you will learn why Jesus said Divine Mercy is mankind's last hope of salvation!
