The road is hard and carrying a cross is not an easy thing. The Lord falls as He goes along. As difficult as it is He gets up and resolutely begins again.

Detachment is necessary to free us from all worldliness and anxiety. Self-denial frees us to follow God. The Lord Himself

has given us an example.

 

Sisters and Brothers, we should put aside everything that does

help us to follow the call of God.

​

Our Father.... Hail Mary.... Glory Be to the Father....

Leader: Jesus Christ Crucified.
All: Have mercy on Us.
Leader: May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, Rest in peace.
 

All: Amen.
