Mary, the Mother of Christ,
is the Mother and Model of the Church. She is the faithful disciple who opened her heart to welcome the Word (Luke 1:29).
In her, the Word was made Flesh and dwelt among us (John 1:14). Mary is the bearer of Christ to the world, teaching us to "do what he tells us" (John 2:5).
She is the one who remained faithful to God's will and stood beneath the Cross trusting and loving, and welcoming all into her heart as her children: "Woman, behold your son" (John 19:26).
Mary is the one around whom the early community gathered, awaiting the gift of the Spirit at Pentecost (Acts 1:14). She continues to be for us a light on the path to the Kingdom, a companion in the journey of faith.
