Scripture: Then Jesus said to them, "Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, until the end of time." (Matthew 28: 18-20)
Holy Mother Mary's Words: "Well, my children, you will make this known to all my people."
Meditation: As Holy Mary challenges and encourages us to follow her Son, she reminds us of our mission.
We are to bring to the whole world the Good News of Jesus Christ. Marked by His Spirit and consecrated in truth and love, the followers of Jesus work together to advance the Kingdom of God.
The "great news" of Holy Mother of God is the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Like Mary, as we hear and bear the Word of God, we carry on the mission of Jesus, the mission entrusted to His apostles and to all the baptized. Such is our mission-so plain and simple that it was entrusted to two young children on the mountain of La Salette.
With maternal concern, the Virgin encourages us one final time: "Well, my children, you will make this known to all my people."
Prayer: Holy Mother of the Church, watch over us, thy people. Help us who have heard the Word of God to proclaim it in work and deed. As thou were filled with the Holy Ghost and gave birth to the Savior, may we, filled with that same Spirit, advance the kingdom of unity and peace for which our Lord and Savior Jesus gave His life on the cross.
Our Father, Hail Mary
Invocation: Our Lady of La Salette, Reconciler of Sinners, pray without ceasing for us who have recourse to thee. +Amen
