of St. Marcellin Champagnat SM

Mary, under the title, Our Lady Help of Christians is the patron of the missions.

The title ‘help’ indicates Mary’s role of praying for those in need.

As the mother of Jesus, the source of all grace, Mary is a channel of that grace for us.

Mary intercedes for us with Jesus as she did at Cana.

St. Marcellin called Mary his Ordinary Resource, indicating that she was the first he turned to when in need.

St. Marcellin Champagnat: pray for us.

Mary, Our Good Mother: pray for us.

And let us remember to: pray for one another.
