Memorial of the Queenship of the Blessed Virgin Mary

Matthew 20:1-16


*Friends, today we celebrate Mary’s Queenship. Mary was the definitive
bearer of the divine presence, the Ark of the Covenant par excellence. When
she visited her cousin Elizabeth, the infant John the Baptist leapt in his
mother’s womb, doing his own version of David’s dance before the Ark. The
Queen Mother—like all of the monarchs of Israel—is a fighter. *Israel
frequently brought the Ark into battle with them. Most famously, the
priests paraded around the city of Jericho bearing the Ark, just before the
walls came tumbling down.



*The Queenship of Mary is not a sentimental feast. Whenever biblical people
spoke of kings or queens, they were speaking of warriors. The question for
us is: Which side are we on? Those trained in the Jesuit spiritual
tradition know of the "two standards" meditation, which compels us to make
the simple choice: In which army do you serve? We fight, of course, not
with the puny weapons of the world, but with the weapons of the Spirit; by
God we fight. So don’t just honor and acknowledge the Queenship of Mary;
get in her army.*
