I remember my oldest sister, now 80+ years young mentioning the Seven Sorrows as a child.

She was a Lay Dominican so I don’t know if this is something in Dominican spiritual practices or not.

Hadn’t heard of it since then. Looks like something particularly important today in light of the terrible culture of death in Western civilization.

Evidently the devotion fell through a crack somehow and Our Lady of Kibeho in Africa has asked that it be brought back. I believe it was the missionary Marie Claire who tortured and ridiculed the first two visionaries who was tasked with spreading this word.

Just in time for 40 Days for Life.
