A Mother meets a son.\u00a0\u00a0Mary encounters Jesus.\u00a0\u00a0It is a soul-piercing experience. Mary is there at the right time, in the right place.\u00a0\u00a0Mary offers encouragement and sympathy, aware that her Son is fulfilling his Father\u2019s will.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Mary, you were human, a woman who knew the pain and difficulties of life.<\/span>
\n<\/span>Your Son gave you to us to be our Mother.<\/span>
\n<\/span>Gentle Mary, mothers are often torn between anguish and hope,<\/span>
\n<\/span>baffled at seeing their children suffer,<\/span>
\n<\/span>tempted to think that they have failed their families<\/span>
\n<\/span>and that God has abandoned them.\u00a0\u00a0Give to women a calm vision of life.\u00a0<\/span>
\n<\/span>Teach them their true role in modern society.<\/span>
\n<\/span>May they be Christ-bearers, evangelisers in the home, in the community,<\/span>
\n<\/span>in the workplace, maintaining and restoring life and love.<\/span>
\n<\/span>Mary, our Mother, protect the gift of innocence in today\u2019s youth.<\/span>
\n<\/span>Mirror of Justice, Queen of Peace, be with us now.\u00a0\u00a0Hail Mary \u2026.<\/span><\/p>\n

Let us proclaim the Mystery of Faith.<\/span>
\n<\/span>Dying you destroyed our death.<\/span>
\n<\/span>Rising you restored our life.<\/span>
\n<\/span>Lord Jesus, come in glory.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I love Thee Jesus, my love above all things;<\/span>
\n<\/span>I repent with my whole heart for having offended Thee.<\/span>
\n<\/span>Never permit me to separate myself from Thee again.<\/span>
\n<\/span>Grant that I may love Thee always<\/span> and then do with me what Thou wilt.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
