With Mary

Becoming  like Mary

7. The obedience and patience

The Blessed Virgin was so attached to God that she described herself as His servant. Humbly, Mary lived all her life according to God's will. When the woman from the Gospel called out: “Blessed is the womb that bore thee!”, Jesus replied: “Blessed rather are they, who listen to God's word and keep it”. In this way, Mary is the first disciple of her Son.

Saint Catherine you who patiently persevered in the pursuit of your mission, despite the difficulties, pray for me.

O Mary, Immaculate Virgin, Mother of God and our Mother, please obtain for us that we may faithfully obey God's will and bear our crosses in peace and to always love more.

And remember… my special intention…

Our Father… Hail Mary… Glory Be…

" O Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee."

Most Holy Virgin,
your prayer was continuous and perservering,
deign to obtain for me the love of prayer and silence,
because God loves to speak in the desert,
as He Himself declared through the prophet Osee:
“I will lead her into solitude, and I will speak to her heart”.
