The sufferings and passion of the crucified Jesus, is a very important devotion to this apostolate. This devotion is important, because through the crucifixion of Jesus, Jesus has redeemed the world, and has given value to human suffering (Colossians 1:24).

For Pillar 3, the emphasis is twofold:

1. Unite our sufferings to the crucified Christ, in order for Him to use our sufferings as a means to increase the holiness of the clergy

2. Meditate frequently on Christ's passion in order for us to be like Jesus and carry our crosses faithfully
