"Mother of the Redeemer, with great joy we call you blessed."
                                            -Blessed John Paul II


Today we celebrate the Nativity of our Blessed Mother.

                                                                   

                                                             The Memorare

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help or sought your intercession, was left unaided. Inspired with this confidence, I fly to you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother; to you do I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in your mercy hear and answer me. Amen.
