Numbers 6:22-27
The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.
As we begin a new year, we entrust ourselves to Mary's maternal care. She guides us toward her Son, Jesus, who is our true peace and salvation.
Reflect on Mary's role as our Mother and intercessor. How can we grow closer to Jesus through her example of faith and obedience?
For peace in our families and in the world
Mary, Mother of God
Mary is the Mother of Jesus Christ and holds a unique place in the Catholic faith as the Queen of Heaven.
Call a family member to wish them a blessed new year and offer your prayers for them.
"Blessed are those who dwell in your house, ever singing your praise!"
— Psalm 84:4
