As we struggle up the steep gradient of our pilgrimage through life so many hills to climb, obstacles to overcome, challenges to tackle, heartaches, tragedies, disappointments this Sequel to "The Story of Mary, Mother of Love", by accenting on the bitter sorrows of the Blessed Virgin Mary, seeks to encourage our pilgrim souls to emulate her saintly example so that we may find Strength to bear our burdens Hope to rise above our despondence Peace through our adversities Comfort through our afflictions Joy through the veil of our tears and Courage to suffer with Glorious Purpose, as did Mary, lowly Handmaid of the Lord, who, by so doing, found Strength to embrace her holy martyrdom, Peace amidst her turmoiled surroundings, Consolation in times of her great sorrowing, and Joy in her ultimate reward of Everlasting Life in Heaven.


Written with the pen of a contemplative and fashioned in the tender love of a true devotee, this meditation on the Sorrows of Our Lady is a gentle but purposeful initiation to the School of Mary a school where the old world is changed into the Kingdom, despair becomes hope, and life breaks into death. Making a welcome contribution to the retrieval of a rich Marian tradition, the author grounds devotion in Scripture, links contemplatio with oratio, and sheds eternal light on a somber present.

Mary Mother of Sorrows
(Canada) | January 16th, 2023
This lovely little blue “Gem” is a cherished treasure and very effective tool when praying The Seven Sorrows of The Blessed Virgin Mary. So Beautifully written. Each chapter, an incredible heartbreaking meditative reflection on the Seven Swords of Sorrowful Agony our Mother of God endured for Jesus and the entire world, and the Agony Our Saviour suffered and endured for Mary and all of us! It is one of my favourite treasures!💙💙💙
A must read

Filled with compassion, love and understanding the author of this insightful book has written a heartfelt chronicle of events following Mary’s fiat to God. We are encouraged to imitate Our Lady’s example in all our trials, tribulations and sorrows of life. In this book, the author inspires the reader to be grateful for Mary’s fiat, for her acceptance of the Cross, her motherly love and the desire to follow in Mary’s footsteps.

I thought this book was well written. E. Mary Christie is a wonderful story teller who uses her narrative and descriptive skills to bring the reader very close to the 'suffering' mother of Jesus. We are made to feel 'at home' in each of the seven scenes where we gain a deeper understanding of what the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart endured. We are invited to reach out to comfort her and grow in our own love for her. I recommend this book as thoughtfully written and well worth reading and reflecting upon.
