The Church commemorates Our Lady of Sorrows on September 15. This feast day honors the Virgin Mary as she stood near Jesus during his crucifixion.
The title refers to seven moments in the life of Mary where suffering pierced her heart. According to CathoBel, this devotion encourages Christians to respond to the pain of others with compassion. Vatican News notes that the commemoration invites believers to reflect on Mary joining the sufferings of her son to participate in his work of redemption.
