In Praise of Mary,
The Mother of the Lord
T oday’s Gospel brings us to meditate on the second Joyful Mys-
tery: Mary’s Visitation to Elizabeth. The two holy women have
been the recipients of God’s special favor: the gift of a child.
For Elizabeth, her child is a most unexpected gift in her old age; for
Mary, her child is an even more precious gift: the very Son of God.
Together with Elizabeth, we greet and proclaim Mary as “the
Mother of the Lord” and “the Woman of Faith.” In this Eucharistic
celebration, let us open our hearts to welcome Jesus, who is brought
to us by his Most Holy Mother to be our Brother, Savior, and Model.
