hear in today’s Gospel that, <b><span style="background-color:rgb(208,224,227)">as he was dying on the cross, Jesus looked
to his mother and the disciple whom he loved, and he said to Mary,
“Woman, behold, your son,” and then to John, “Behold, your mother.” We
are told that “from that hour the disciple took her into his home.”</span><br></b></font></p>

Mary is the one through whom Christ was born, and if the Church is
indeed Christ’s Mystical Body, then she must be, in a very real sense,
the Mother of the Church. She is the one through whom Jesus continues to
be born in the hearts of<span style="background-color:rgb(217,234,211)"> those who</span> believe</span></b>. This is not to confuse her
with the Savior, but it is to insist on her mission as mediator and
intercessor. <b><span style="background-color:rgb(255,242,204)">At the close of the great “Hail Mary” prayer, <span style="background-color:rgb(217,234,211)">we</span> Catholics
ask Mary to pray for <span style="background-color:rgb(217,234,211)">us</span> “now and at the hour of our death,” signaling
that throughout <span style="background-color:rgb(217,234,211)">one</span>’s life Mary is the privileged channel through which
the grace of Christ flows into the Mystical Body.</span><br></b></font></p>
