“Blessed are you among women,
and blessed is the fruit of your womb!
And why is this granted me,
that the mother of my Lord
should come to me?”

“Thought for the Day: SS. Zachary and Elizabeth are living examples of the observant Jews of their day, steeped in Scriptures and awaiting the redemption of Israel. Their admirable fidelity and devotion made them key figures in the coming of Jesus. Mary’s kindness in going to help Elizabeth shows her own sensitivity to the welfare of others. It is something we should strive to imitate daily.” From “The One Year Book of Saints”, by Rev. Clifford Stevens

Let us continue to pray for and help one another as we lift our cross to Jesus and Mary each day…the more we look away from ourselves and see that we are not alone in our suffering the more we will find peace in our own hearts. Happy Feast Day!!!

May Our Lord bless and keep you today and always,
The Apostolate of Hannah’s Tears
