Dear Family,
“Hail, full of grace! The Lord is with you.” - Luke 1:28
The great gift of God’s grace is blessed indeed. It is a generous, gratuitous, free, unmerited gift and gracious favor our gentle and merciful Lord has bestowed on all humanity through the tender and most generous heart of our Mother Mary; our Lady and our Queen. Our Blessed Mother is grace itself as God has destined Mary to be the Mother and Queen of us all. Grace provides us the gracious gift that gives us the means and way to enter into a loving, profoundly deep prayer life with God forming in us an eternal union and holy communion that is beyond words and far exceeds the expectation of any personal relationship and fulfilling our deepest desires and satisfying our greatest needs. Mary is the path and the doorway our gracious Lord chose to bring salvation to poor sinners and to bring the gift of Jesus to every heart. We give thanks to God for blessing Mary, full of grace and for our Lady, Mother and Queen for sharing that grace with us all and obtaining for us all God’s gracious favor. Through Mary, let us continue to share God’s grace and the gift of his peace.
God’s peace and blessings always,
Very Rev. Ivan Olmo
