New Feast: Mary, Mother of the Church ...



"Above all, let us listen to Mary Most Holy, 
in whom the mystery of the Eucharist appears, 
more than in anyone else, 
as a mystery of light. 
Gazing upon Mary, we come to know 
the transforming power present in the Eucharist. 

In her we see the world renewed in love. 

Contemplating her, assumed body and soul into heaven, 
we see opening up before us those 'new heavens' and that 'new earth' 
which will appear at the second coming of Christ. Here below, 
the Eucharist represents their pledge, and in a certain way, 
their anticipation: 'Veni, Domine Iesu!'’” (Rev 22:20).
