Dear friends in Christ, We are living in exciting times and dangerous times. Times of unprecedented grace and times of unprecedented sin. Our contempoary culture and society have been so contaminated by the virus of sin and effected by warped ideology that it is virtually impossible not to be tainted or contaminated by it. What chance have our young people growing up in a hedonistic culture? We have Mary as our guide and role model. She who is uncontaminated by this virus and the stain of sin must become our refuge. Hidden in her heart we will hear the beat of Christ's Sacred heart and remain faithful to the end. She is the ark of salvation, the refuge of sinners, the scourge of demons. She is the Lady of Grace, beauty beyond compare, fairest of the fair and hope of the lost. She is the Queen of Heaven, the bright morning star, the joy amidst our affliction. She is our sweetness and our hope, she is our advocate, our life and our hope of salvation. Let us consecrate ourselves anew to the Lady of Grace who is our Mother and advocate. Praised be to Jesus Christ for his holy mother.
