"The words ‘Monstra te esse Matrem’ (Show thyself to be a Mother) are traditionally added to every copy of the image. They are taken from the hymn Ave Maris Stella.")
For the feast day of Our Lady of Medugorje/Grace, June 25, 2024
Our Mother entreats us pray
for peace in heart-home-world
while mind she tries to forget
her squabbles with Joseph this morning
while soul she winks, whispers:
A Mother will understand
