1st January 2014: Solemnity of our Mother Mary, Mother of God

Saint Bernard of Clairvaux

"Let Mary never be far from your lips or your heart. And to obtain the fruit of Her prayers, do not forget the example of Her life. With Her support, you will never fall. Under Her protection, you will never fear. Under Her guidance, you will never tire. And with Her Help, you will reach your Heavenly goal." - Saint Bernard
