SHOULD WE PRAY ONLY THE SORROWFUL MYSTERY OF THE ROSARY DURING LENT?
Traditionally, the sorrowful mystery of the Rosary is prayed on Tuesdays and Fridays. However, during Lent, many Catholics choose to focus only on the sorrowful mystery of the rosary, which reflects on the passion and death of Jesus.
One of the reasons behind this practice is that the sorrowful mystery offers a profound opportunity for reflection and meditation on the sacrifice of Christ which is the main focus of the season of Lent.
But then, while praying the sorrowful mystery is a traditional practice during Lent, it is not a strict requirement. Catholics are free to pray any set of mysteries during Lent, including the joyful, luminous, or glorious mysteries.
In the Catholic Church, the Rosary is considered a private devotion. As such, if praying the sorrowful mystery throughout Lent helps you focus more on the passion and death of Christ, you are very free to do so as a personal choice. But generally, there is no (universal) law mandating Catholics to pray only the sorrowful mystery during Lent.

IS FASTING FOR EVERYONE?
In Lent, Catholics are obliged to fast on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday, and to abstain from meat on all Fridays of Lent. However, the Church, like a good mother, does not impose fasting on everyone without exception.
Those exempted from fasting include:
– Children under 18
– Adults over 59
– The sick or those with medical conditions
– Pregnant or nursing mothers
– Those whose health or strength would be seriously affected
Fasting is not meant to harm the body, but to convert the heart. Those who cannot fast are encouraged to practice Lent through prayer, charity, and other sacrifices. God desires mercy and love more than mere external discipline (Hosea 6:6).

Today is #AshWednesday and marks the beginning of the season of #Lent which in itself is a season of reflection, penance ,repentance and restoration.
As we fast and pray may our prayers and supplication find favour in the sight of our Heavenly Father and may His peace abide with us now and in days to come.
Have a blessed #AshWednesday and be sure to attend mass and get your self marked with Ash in your parish 🙏

The Memorare
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary,
that never was it known
that anyone who fled to thy protection,
implored thy help,
or sought thy intercession,
was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence
I fly unto thee,
O Virgin of virgins, my Mother.
To thee do I come,
before thee I stand,
sinful and sorrowful.
O Mother of the Word Incarnate,
despise not my petitions,
but in thy mercy hear and answer me.
Amen.

The guitar riff is an original by Oriental Brothers, taken from “Nwanyi Di Ya Bu Eze”—a timeless classic. 💜🦅

Mary, Mother of Vocations, intercede for all discerning their path in life - marriage, priesthood, religious life, or single life. Help them hear God’s call clearly and respond with courage and trust. Amen🙏🏽
