*The Cross of Love..........March 3






O God, each year you purify the Church
through the Lenten observance.
May the good works of your Church
obtain for us the grace we ask for
through our self-denial.



Here is the meaning of the card's Latin words:
"He who wishes to come after Me must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow Me."

Friends,
Here is the meaning of the card's Latin words:

"He who wishes to come after Me must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow Me."

John
PS: There is also something inscribed on the stone at lower right, but I cannot see it clearly. Perhaps it is a reference to the Fourth Sorrowful Mystery of the Rosary or to one of the Stations of the Cross.
