10 May - The Marian Profile


With Mary, the first lay person in the Church, and with her spirituality (of communion)... there will be an increase in the special contribution that the Marian profile brings to the Church, and it will appear in everyone’s eyes more beautiful, more holy, more dynamic, more a family.
It will be a loving Church, better oriented towards its new frontiers: ecumenism, interreligious dialogue and dialogue with those who do not believe. It will be continually renewed, with new vocations: it will be a charismatic, Marian Church, more missionary and more evangelising.
And all this will be for the glory of God and of His Mother
