Ave Maria


Hail Mary, Full of Grace.
The Lord is with you.
Blessed are you among women and
blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now
and at the hour of our death. Amen.

"She [Mary] stands out among the poor and humble of the Lord, who confidently hope for and receive salvation from Him. After a long period of waiting the times are fulfilled in her, the exalted Daughter of Sion, and the new plan of salvation is established." - Lumen Gentium

"Let Mary never be far from your lips and heart. And to obtain the fruit of her prayers, do not forget the example of her life. With her support, you will never fall. Beneath her protection, you will never fear. Under her guidance, you will never tire. And with her help, you will reach your heavenly goal." - St Bernard

"Among all the devotions approved by the Church none has been so favored by so many miracles as the devotion of the Most Holy Rosary." - Pope Pius IX
