Summary

What is your mission in life? One of the definitions of ‘mission’ from the Oxford dictionary is ‘the calling of one to spread one’s faith, one’s belief and convictions’; with that in mind, what is our belief? What are our convictions? Let us take inspiration from Mother Mary, considering our mission and reflecting on scripture and the elements of her mission. These include: 1. To lead people to an encounter of God (Luke 1-The visitation) 2. To be a witness to God’s love and mercy-a witness as one who follows the will of God (Matthew 12-‘Who is my mother? Who are my brothers?’) 3. Through service and action, to help people to experience God-Mary is the mother figure of the Church, serving the Church (John 19-‘Behold,your mother!’) - Novena Devotion by Fr. Terence Wee, C.Ss.R.
