Sister Virginelle

Mary! Who is she? A young girl who said “Yes?” A Wife? A Mother? A Widow? She gave her all with each commitment — even watched her son die and then held His battered body in her arms. What is amazing is that I asked who she is, not was. Mary has appeared over and over again and has said how much she loves us and how much she wants the world to love her Son, Jesus. Mary is still our Mother and welcomes us under her mantle to feel her love. Let’s talk about it.
