Fr. Ray Earle:
2024 - Day 1: Mary's Pondering

Mary pondered her Fiat. Her, yes, was certainly a gigantic leap of faith into the unknown, something she didn't know how it was going to unfold. Life can be that way for any of us. Nobody knows what lies ahead. No one has a crystal ball to see into the future. We depend upon the grace of God to guide us along the way. We live with the eyes of faith, reading the signs from our own lived experience.

2024 - Day 2: Mary's Strength

For us, right here, is our upper room. This church, this building. The presence of one another is the upper room. The Eucharistic table, where we gather as the community of believers, setting out, dedicating ourselves to prayer, listening to the word, and being nourished by the bread of life is where we as a community are nurtured, and we receive strength to live our lives outside of those doors. Food for the journey.

2024 - Day 3: Mary, Mother of God

Good Friday on the hill, Calvary.
It was the crucifixion. Everybody ran away. They all abandoned the Lord. But not his mother. And then right before breathing his last, he gave us his mother. To be our mother. our confidant and intercessor, companion and advocate. She is our queen. She is our sister. She is the mother of the church."

2023 - Day 1: The Beloved Mother

We have that devotion to the Blessed mother, but devotion and devotedness to the Blessed Mother does not stop from our prayer and practice of piety here in the church. Devotion is to be translated always into mission. Our prayer is always leading us or pushing us to action, to give and to help to share because we are called to mission.

2023 - Day 2: Mother's Love is Perpetual

Our mother's love and concern for us is just a reflection of the love of God for all of us. The love of God that is perpetual, the love of God that is infinite, the love of God that is always just there for us.

2023 - Day 3: Children of the Mother

We have a mother whom we can call on when we need help. We have a mother. wen we are lonely and in despair. We have a mother when we are suffering and in pain, we have a mother whom we are also able to call when we are victorious, when we are joyful and celebrating moments of our life. We have a mother we can go to because Jesus gave her to us.
