Let us imitate Mary’s example this Advent so that the presence of Christ may overflow from within us and into the lives of our loved ones. A meditation by Father Javier del Castillo.

Our mother Mary gave all the glory to God. Throughout the Gospels, she usually remains in the background. She directs attention not to herself but to Jesus. Mary becomes a model of humility, obedience and love for the whole Church. Mary was a mother for the first Christians, and she is a mother for us. A meditation by Father Thomas G. Bohlin.

Let us ask our mother Mary, who has been assumed into heaven, to help us get into heaven. Mary, help us to be lovers after the Heart of your Son. A meditation by Father Timothy Uhen.
