Monastery of the Holy Cross

May the prayers of Mary, the Mother of God, be your strength today and throughout this new Year of Our Lord!

“The One Whom she conceived as man by the Holy Spirit, who truly became her Son according to the flesh, was none other than the Father’s eternal Son, the second person of the Holy trinity.  Hence the Church confeses that Mary is truly ‘Mother of God’ (Theotokos).” [CCC, 495]

We have continued to experience technical difficulties with our popular homily podcast.  My sincere apologies!  I hope that we can make the solution a priority in the coming couple of weeks.  In the meantime, we are re-recording several homilies, which we will then podcast in order, with the exception of the Fourth Sunday of Advent, which will come last.
