In this video, we explore the profound role of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Catholic spirituality. Mary is not only the Mother of God and the most venerated of saints but also desires a personal relationship with each of us. Learn how her maternal care, intercession, and guidance can bring us closer to Jesus Christ.
Discover the Scriptural foundations of Mary's role, her intercessory power, and how the Church honors her as the Mother of all believers. We’ll also share practical ways to embrace Mary in your spiritual life through devotions, consecration, and celebrating her feasts.
Have you accepted Mary as your Lady and personal Mother? Watch now and let her lead you closer to her Son, our Lord Jesus Christ.
