Mary has been present at the unfolding of God's plan of salvation for the world. She bore the Savior into the world. And when her Son Jesus was dying upon the Cross, He entrusted her to the beloved disciple. Then, from the body of Jesus came blood and water to signal the emergence of the Church, in which she would have a special role.
As she joined the apostles in prayer, waiting for the descent of the Holy Spirit, so she continues to intercede for the Church so that we may faithfully live out the transforming power of the Paschal Mystery that the Holy Spirit brings deeply into us.
