Servite Rosary of the 7 Sorrows of the Blessed Virgin Mary

After the traditional Marian (Dominican) Rosary, the Seven Sorrows of Mary Chaplet is the most honored Marian devotion. This chaplet is also known as the Dolores Rosary but is most popularly known by the title, Servite Rosary. This devotion calls us to meditate on the seven sorrows of the Blessed Virgin Mary and, as with all devotions, the Servite Rosary has an interesting history. ORIGIN & HISTORY The history of this rosary begins with the Order of the Servants of Mary, also known as the Servites. This order originated in Monte Senario Italy, on the Feast of the Assumption in 1233. The story is told that seven professional men from Florence were inspired by the spirit of repentance which was common to the Brothers of Penance with whom they were in close contact. It is believed that Mary appeared to these men and asked that they consecrate themselves to her and devote themselves to her service. In 1240, they withdrew from the secular world and turned to lead lives of penance, prayer, and service to Mary. Meditation on the Seven Sorrows of Our Lady is a way of sharing in the major sorrows of Mary’s life. As we pray one 'Our Father" and seven 'Hail Mary’s' for each sorrow, we ponder the pain she endured along with her Son. We ask her to help us understand, in times of weakness, the sins we have committed and to lead us to contrition and repentance. By joining our sorrows with Mary’s we participate in the work of our Redemption. 1ST SORROW: The Prophecy of Simeon (Lk2:25-35) 2ND SORROW: The Flight into Egypt (Mt2:13-15) 3RD SORROW: The Loss of Jesus in the Temple (Lk2:41-50) 4TH SORROW: Mary Meets Jesus on the way to Calvary (Lk23:27-31; Jn19:17) 5TH SORROW: Jesus Dies on the Cross (Jn19:25-30) 6TH SORROW: Mary Received the Body of Jesus in her Arms (Ps130; Lk23:50-54; Jn19:31-37) 7TH SORROW: Jesus is Placed in the Tomb (Is53:8; Lk23:50-56; Jn19:38-42; Mk15:40-47) You are welcome to join our daily Rosary (Monday thru Friday) @11:00am (Pacific/Los Angeles time); it's only 30-minutes long, you are welcome to stay for conversation afterward. https://bit.ly/4AveMaria
