In this month of May, dedicated to Mary, this service introduces her virtues … an authentic “recipe for holiness” that Christians must follow today.
“Neither the grace of the Divine Redeemer, nor the mighty intercession of His Mother and our spiritual Mother, nor yet her sublime sanctity, could lead us to the port of salvation, if we did not respond to them by our persevering will to honor Jesus Christ and the Holy Virgin with our devout imitation of their sublime virtue.”
These were the words of Blessed Paul VI, written in the Apostolic Exhortation ‘Signum Magnum’, to enlighten Christians to follow and imitate Mary.
