The Sorrowful Mysteries: March 16-18


March 14, 2012

This Lent, student brothers from the Dominican House of Studies are presenting reflections on the Sorrowful Mysteries of the Rosary in several cities throughout the Province. Below is the schedule for this weekend:

The Carrying of the Cross

Bro. Joseph-Anthony Kress, O.P. The carrying of the cross is addressed briefly in the synoptics as well as in the Gospel of John. There is much to be seen in these short descriptions of the actions of Christ as well as in those of Simon of Cyrene. This talk will also address the connection between the Blessed Virgin Mary and the passion of her Son.

The Mystery of Sacrifice Carrying of the Cross

Bro. Dominic Mary Verner, O.P. Because Christ, our high priest, has offered his perfect sacrifice on Mount Calvary, we are now free from the obligation to offer bloody sacrifices of doves, goats, and bullocks at his altar. One might be tempted to think that the time of sacrifice is now over, when in fact by virtue of our baptism Christ has finally given us the ability to offer a worthy sacrifice and fitting oblation to the God to whom we owe worship.
