Mary, Our Mother |
|
May the Virgin Mary who accompanied with motherly solicitude the development of the newborn Church, also guide our footsteps in our time and obtain for us a new Pentecost of love. May she especially make us all aware of being missionaries, that is, those who have been sent out by the Lord to be his witnesses at every moment of our life.

Mary stands before us as a sign of comfort encouragement and hope. She turns to us saying, ‘Commit yourself to God; then you will see that it is precisely by doing so that your life will become broad and light, not boring, but filled with infinite surprises, for God’s infinite goodness is never depleted!’

Mary, Our Mother |

Mary comes to us as a mother, always open to the needs of her children. Through the light which streams from her face, God's mercy is made manifest. Let us allow ourselves to be touched by her gaze, which tells us that we are all loved by God and never abandoned by him!

Mary, Our Mother |
|
The closer a person is to God the closer he is to people. We see this in Mary. The fact that she is totally with God is the reason why she is so close to human beings. For this reason, she can be the mother of every consolation and every help; a mother whom anyone can dare to address in any kind of need in weakness and in sin, for she has understanding for everything and is for everyone the open power of creative goodness.
