HOMILIES

Mary is the one who gives Jesus to all 
humanity and who brings Jesus into the world

as the mother of Jesus.

In being the mother of Jesus, and in being
faithful to Jesus, she becomes our mother.

Let us not stop praying to Mary because Mary leads us to Jesus. Saint Louis-Marie Grignion
de Montfort used to say, “We can go to Jesus without Mary, but it is faster with Mary!” Let us
not fear to pass by Mary to go to Jesus. That is her vocation, given to her by Jesus himself.

And let us pray to the Father. Through her “yes”, Jesus came into our lives. Through the prayer
of Mary, let our heart be more open to Jesus. Through the prayer of Mary, let the Church be
born and continue to grow. Through the prayer of Mary, let us grow as children of God.
