Our Lady of Sorrows ~ Fr Ripperger

I also have a story about Our Lady of Sorrows. I am a revert and spent much wasted time away from the Catholic Church, only to be drawn back in quite powerfully and unexpectedly. I started praying the Seven Sorrows rosary about a year ago after listening to this webcast. I wanted to experience the promises Fr. Ripperger talks about, yet at the same time doubting someone like me would even be privy to them. I asked Our Lady to reveal to me my greatest defect, and like clockwork it was revealed. And just as Fr. Ripperger says, it was something totally unexpected. With Our Lady’s help, I was able to address that fault. Well, a couple of months ago my sister and I had a huge fight. We had grown up in an unstable home, and carry ‘baggage’ or wounds to this day that sometimes resurface, and we start blaming and yelling at each other. Well this fight ended with her telling me, “l’m done.” I was devastated. She had never said this before. I began praying to Our Lady to bring my sister back to me and to God. A couple of days later, I called her to say I was sorry, and to my surprise she called me back. We spoke about God and about Jesus, and my experience coming back to the Faith, and I suggest a few Fr. R webcasts. Well, a couple of days after that she reverted back to the Faith! She started praying the rosary every day, is going to Mass, and receiving reconciliation! She is “all in” and feels like her eyes have been opened. Thank you Our Lady and Jesus! 🙏 This is real!

My 32 year old daughter died 5 years ago. I had left the church during the scandal, of which my son and daughter were victims. I distinctly remember, as my daughter passed, feeling grief for Mary, recognizing my own pain was "a sword that pierced my heart." I was beyond blessed that those words resulted in my immediate return to the church, rosary and daily mass, as had been my faith life prior to leaving. I was overcome with the shame we humans constantly partake; using one man's sins or whatever the reason, to excuse our departure from our faith. I find great solace in Mary and an immeasurable gratitude that God gave me the grace to join, albeit in a minor way, in comparison, in her suffering. I pray this will help in my journey towards sanctity. I don't believe I'll ever be able to apologize enough to God and am thankful he has given me a cross I can bare. To those mothers and fathers that have lost their beloved children, I pray maybe my viewpoint could offer them comfort and a road to make peace with your loss and gratefully join God in suffering. God bless.

My Grandmother had an image in her home of our lady of sorrows. She was in much pain as her death was approaching, but when she passed away, she died with with a smile on her face. Maybe she saw our lady as she was leaving this world.

I’m not Catholic yet (but it’s looking like I’m on my way there, Lord willing, I start RCIA next week). Today is the feast day of Our Lady of Sorrows. I realized that my father passed away years ago on this day. He had cancer and it was vicious. I remember that day being in a deep sorrow and weeping so much over my father’s body with so much emotion that I actually started having a nose bleed. Our Lady of Sorrows, pray for us.

I lost my two precious sons. My son Noah was 15 , my 19 year old son Andy I found on my couch dead 14 months later! We were extremely close! I know Mother Mary understands my pain..knowing her suffering was even so much deeper is humbling !

I'm blessed to live across the street from a Traditional Catholic Church. There is a grotto that has a statue of our Virgin Mother that I can see from my living room. There a aren't to many flowers available during the long cold winter, but I try to her bring a flower 🌸 whenever I can.

This video has really helped me gain understanding. I'm a very recent convert from being an anti-Catholic protestant, to Catholicism. In intellect I can understand the Marian dogmas, but it's the heart and also in part in the mind the pollution from protestantism which still stains me. When I listen to this, the heart more fully understands, thank you! Please pray for me, and my wife that we may grow in these matters! God bless!

My auntie, a protestant, died recently. I was priviliged to be at her bedside, and recited the rosary, as she lay there, even as she passed away. The vicar, at her funeral, was inspired to say the Hail Mary over the coffin, even though I hadn't asked him to, and he was a Church of England vicar. Perhaps this is Our lady's way of telling me she was there for auntie.

Immaculate Mother of Sorrows PRAY FOR US & THE WHOLE WORLD. Amen

I love Fr. Ripperger's sermons as they are really very technical and requires re-viewing the videos multiple times. They are deep and theological. Thanks you Fr. for your great work.

Our Lady of Sorrows cover your children with your mantle. Protect us from the evil in this world that is trying to consume us.

Our Lady of Sorrow, please pray for us for those who is struggling in life especially our spiritual battle

I just lost my beloved mother unexpectedly on October 6 2022 and I'm heartbroken 😭💔. I'm praying to God for strength, healing, and resignation soon 🙏🏻. Our Virgin Mary suffered greatly yet she kept her humility and kept going. Please intercede for me mother Mary, and heal my wounds. ✝️🙏🏻

Thankyou Father for all you put into your sermons!

I was diagnosed with bipolar psychosis / ezchizophrenia when I was 22 years old I received my healing in a healing mass all the priest and the sister their were part of the catholic charismatic movement I believe the charismatic movement is real and alive

Thank you Fr. for your wisdom and understanding of Our Holy Mother Mary. I just lost my son from a very long suffering and am in such pain watching him suffer immensely. This lesson and truth has given me reflection on my own 7 sorrows united with hers.I pray for humility and to become ever more closer to My Lord Jesus and Holy Mother. May I be granted the ability to imitate her with Gods Grace no matter how painful. I needed to hear every word of this. God Bless.

This is one of the best talks I’ve ever heard. It’s so good.

Our Sorrowful Mother turned my life around, in a heartbeat!!!

Father Ripperger- God has blessed you with such wisdom, charity, and love to explain the Seven Sorrows of our Mother to us so that we can better understand her grief and love her and Jesus Christ more. Thank you. Thank you and praise you Holy Trinity. ✝️

I ABSOLUTELY can witness that Mary will help you!!! I prayed to discover my defect and it worked! Also, I asked for a simple favor and it was granted so sweetly... Wow. And with two witnesses in two different states! Mama Mary! Our Lady of Sorrows Thank you!
