The Friday of Sorrows or Passion Friday is a solemn pious memorial of the dolorous Blessed Virgin Mary on the Friday before Palm Sunday held in the fifth week of Lent (formerly called "Passion Week"). It takes place exactly one week before Good Friday, and focuses on the shared emotional pain and Passion of Jesus Christ that was supernaturally endured by his mother, the Blessed Virgin Mary, who is venerated under the title Our Lady of Sorrows.
