The Monday after Pentecost is designated for the universal celebration of Mary, Mother of the Church. This title honors her pivotal role as a model disciple in prayer at the foot of the cross and at the coming of the Holy Spirit on Pentecost. Let us ask Mary to extend her maternal care to our Church so in need of consolation, healing and renewal.
Our own, specially commissioned stained glass windows also depicts Mary, Mother of the Church. Mary holding the infant Jesus is surrounded by symbols of the 12 apostles and the four evangelists.
