The Seven Sorrows of Mary

Friday, September 18, 2026

Monthly devotion for September

In the Middle Ages many Catholics began observing special devotions around a particular theme each month. Today, many families are reviving this practice as part of the way theyobserve the liturgical calendar at home. By practicing monthly devotions, the core values of the faith will become more alive within your family. The beauty of monthly devotions is that there is no set way to celebrate. So, be creative, make it fun and adapt your celebration to your own family.
