The Way of the Cross for Holy Souls

STATION 9: Jesus Falls for the Third Time

We adore You, O Christ, and we praise You (or: We adore You, O Christ, and we bless You.)

BECAUSE BY YOUR HOLY CROSS, YOU HAVE REDEEMED THE WORLD.

Prayer

Through this most painful fall, O Jesus, I ask You to deliver me from an unhappy death, which would plunge me into hell. From the power of the enemy deliver my immortal soul, and make me live and die in Your grace.

Pray the Stations of the Cross with Us, way of the Cross, station 9

Prayer

Look with mercy on the poor souls doing penance in Purgatory. With tears and prayers, they seek Your help and mercy. Hear their prayers and lead them out of that place of purification into the blessed peace of heaven, there to enjoy forever the splendor of Your glory.

MY JESUS, MERCY!

Our Father, Who art in Heaven,  hallowed be Thy name;  Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.       

Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with you.  Blessed are you among women and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus.*

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.  Amen

*Or: Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.  Blessed art thou amongst women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end.  Amen.   

Eternal Rest grant unto them, O Lord.

*AND LET PERPETUAL LIGHT SHINE UPON THEM.

Merciful Jesus, grant them eternal rest.

AMEN.

The LOGO image of Our Lady of Grace is original artwork by Martin Lariviere in 2009. We have the artist’s permission (my son). It is our exclusive trademark logo image.

A beautifully photographed sky by Donald Tong inspired the website’s colour scheme. Cropped portions of it are the background for the footer Bible verse. He shared it as a free download on pexels.com.

Raphael painted The Sistine Madonna circa (1513-1514). We made circular cut-outs from the original image.

We chose a Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo painting of Jesus’ third fall.  It is oil on canvas and located in the Church of San Polo in Venice.  He painted it circa 1745 to 1749.

Theophile Marie Francois Lybaert painted Jesus is Stripped of His Garments circa 1886-1887.  We cropped it from the original image. It is in Our Lady of Grace Church in Antwerp.   

Ludovico Carracci painted An Angel Frees the Souls of Purgatory circa 1610.

The painting of Jesus with the halo and crown of thorns is a photo from our reproduction that we purchased of the original artwork of Carlo Dolci.
