August 27th—Finance Meeting at St. Catherine at 7pm Make Jesus’ Mother your own

Catholics reserve worship for God, but Mary has a special

place of honor in our hearts. When we follow Jesus’ re-

quest to take His Mother as our own, we are sheltered by

her maternal protection, share in the love between Mother

and Son, and take a unique route to the heart of Our Lord.

“Behold the handmaid of the Lord” (Luke 1:38). From

the first “Yes” to her unique role in God’s plan to the fi-

nal moments at the foot of the Cross, Mary cooperated

with faith, hope, and charity in her Son’s plan to restore

supernatural life to us. She is ready to protect our new life

and help us grow in love of her Son, if only we ask.

“Woman, behold your son” (John 19:26). Jesus’ suffer-

ing and death on the Cross was the ultimate act of love.

Out of love, too, He offered to share His beloved Mother

with all of us as our own Mother. Heeding Jesus’ words,

“Behold your mother” (John 19:27), we can take Mary

into our hearts and homes. “Do whatever He tells

you” (John 2:5). Mary brought others to Jesus by bring-

ing him into the world and talking about him. Bringing

others to Jesus is our job, too. We can follow her exam-

ple, ask for her help, and be obedient like her.
