.The Memorial of Our Lady of Sorrows takes place on September 15, the day after the Feast of the Triumph of the Cross. We remember the suffering of Mary as she stood at the foot of the Cross and witnessed the torture and death of her Son.

We also are reminded of Simeon's words to Mary (Luke 2:34-35) -that a sword would pierce her soul.

By tradition, the Catholic Church dedicates each month of the year to a certain devotion.
In September, it is Our Lady of Sorrows.
