May 29th : Mary The Queen of Heaven
“She lives now and is protecting us. She is there [in heaven], body and soul, with the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. She is the same person who was born in Palestine, who gave her self to God while still a child, who received the message from St. Gabriel the Archangel, who gave birth to our Savior, and who stood beside him at the foot of the Cross. In her, all ideals become a reality. But we should never think that this sublime greatness of hers makes her inaccessible to us. She is the one who is full of grace and the sum of all perfections… and she is also our Mother.” (“Mother of God and our Mother”, Friends of God, 292)
Let us offer to our Mother today: The “Hail Holy Queen” at each hour.
