Last Sunday afternoon, I found myself coloring a beautiful our lady sorrows coloring page for adults. Each stroke of the colored pencil felt like a moment of connection. One image portrayed Mary standing solemnly at the foot of the cross, a reminder of her pain, 'Near the cross of Jesus stood his mother' (John 19:25). As I colored, the world outside faded, and I was drawn into this sacred story. With six pages to choose from, including simple and detailed designs, I appreciated the time to reflect on Mary’s strength and love.
