Mary is our mother and cares for us. We must take seriously the words our Lord Jesus uttered from the cross: "Behold, your mother". Those words include us. They include all sons and daughters of the Church. We are Mary's children. And as such we look at her as we seek to learn all we can from the way she answered God. We see her as the one who was close to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. We try to get as near as we can to her Immaculate Heart, convinced that she stands out among humankind as an unsurpassable example of love to Jesus. Her motherhood is an occasion to learn to open oneself to God’s Plan, and to live increasingly His gifts of faith, hope and charity. Obviously, she stands as a permanent paradigm of Christian life. Knowing that she is our mother, we speak to her expressing our love, asking her intercession, giving thanks to her in different moments of our daily life. We want to speak to her with filial love, to share with her our joys and our sorrows, to open ourselves to her, to ask for her intercession, to thank her, and to rely on her in different situations of our life."
("Teaching us to pray with Mary", taken from an interview with Luis Fernando Figari by Alejandro Bermudez, Our Sunday Visitor, May 30, 1999)
