Mary, Mother of God

There are four principal basilicas in Roma, St. Mary Major, St. Peter, St. John Lateran, and St Paul. Built in the 5th century, Mary Major honors Mary under her title as “Mother of God and the church”. The emphasis for this title was on divinity of Christ. Jesus, although he was incarnated, was divine. For our salvation, we must have faith in him like Mary. He is our living bread as stated by himself in the Gospel. Mary, trusted God even in the midst of uncertainties, we are invited to walk through the storms and on the water of life with confidence. Life is a journey of faith, by Mary’s help, let us walk it in total trust in Jesus!

Mary, Mother of God, pray for us!
