First Fall
Jesus Falls the First Time
V. We adore Thee, O Christ, and we praise Thee.
R. Because by Thy holy Cross, thou hast redeemed the world. The crowd is still jeering, mocking Him and shouting insults.
He is exhausted with agony. His heart is full, but his limbs are weak and fail Him, He falls. He gets up and continues on. Mark this fall in your memory as a moment in time as you fail to fall into sin again and again.

Prayer:
My beloved Jesus, it was not the cross, but my sins which have made Thee suffer so much. By the merits of this first fall, save me from the great misfortune of ever falling into mortal sin.
The Way of the Cross of Saint Alphonsus Liquori
Our Father...
Hail Mary...
Glory Be... v. Have Mercy upon us O Lord.
r. Have Mercy on us. May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
