As these refections will pause for the month of December, I wish each of you a Happy Feastday for December 8, a fruitful Advent and all the blessings of Christmas.<\/p>\n
We ask Mary Immaculate to accompany us\u00a0:<\/p>\n
\n\u2028Mary Immaculate is patroness of our Congregation. Open to the Spirit, she consecrated herself totally as lowly handmaid to the person and work of the\u00a0Savior.<\/strong><\/h5>\n
\u2028She received Christ in order to share him with all the world, whose hope he is. In her, we recognize the model of the Church\u2019s faith and of our own.<\/strong><\/h5>\n
\u2028We shall always look on her as our mother.<\/strong><\/h5>\n
In the joys and sorrows of our missionary life, we feel close to her who is the Mother of Mercy.<\/strong><\/h5>\n
Wherever our ministry takes us, we will strive to instil genuine devotion to the Immaculate Virgin who prefigures God\u2019s final victory over all evil.<\/strong><\/h5>\n<\/blockquote>\n
