The call to set out

Mary the young, pregnant unmarried woman. Mary the Visitor. Mary the life giver. Mary the lover. Mary the first disciple. Mary the faithful one. Mary the refugee. Mary the grieving mother. Mary the elderly lady nearing the end of her life in Ephesus... Choose the Mary you most identify with. Pray that she will travel with you. Pray that you, like her, will set out to share the full life of her Son. In your home, community, family and country. Holy Mary Mother of God pray for us and be with us.
