The Stations of the Cross

The Fourth Station:
Jesus meets his mother

O Mary, visited by courteous angel

who drew momentously from you 'Amen'

O lily lady, dare I ask,

in nine long months,

in thirty three short years,

in three eternally long hours,

Did you not ever wish that 'Yes' unsaid?

(Sister Catherine SLG)

Hail Mary full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
