Dear Friend in the Lord,
Mary, Mother of the Church: Before Jesus died on the Cross He proclaimed His Mother as the “Mother of all believers in the Church.” Ponder on, “Jesus’ Love for His Mother is deeply connected to His Love for all believers. He wants His Mother to care and love us, and also wants us to be Mary’s children and embrace Her love at all times.”
Fr Philip Heng, S.J.
John 19:25-27
Near the cross of Jesus stood his mother and his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary of Magdala.
Seeing his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing near her, Jesus said to his mother, ‘Woman, this is your son.’ Then to the disciple he said, ‘This is your mother.’ And from that hour the disciple took her into his home.
