RESPECT LIFE MONTH
Throughout the whole of Scripture, Mary’s words are few.
Yet, in her sacred encounter with Elizabeth, a powerful declaration pours from her lips. Mary proclaims to all generations that the Lord lifts up the lowly, fills the hungry with good things, and remembers his promise of mercy from age to age (Lk 1:46-56). In both word and deed, Mary speaks a message of hope-not only to Elizabeth, but also to every mother in need and to each of us. USCCB “Called to Serve Moms in Need”
