Mother of Our Divine Lord, it was your unconditional love for your Son that urged you on to stand with Him at the foot of the cross. Thus, it was by your example that Mother Frances Streitel stood steadfast in her pursuit to form our community, the Sisters of the Sorrowful Mother. And so, by your example and intercession, we give praise to God for the blessings of over 125 years of service to others. Amen.
