The Feast of the Most Holy Name of Mary: Following Mary in Discovering Our Mission Today’s Homily for the Feast of the Most Holy Name of Mary . . . . . . begins with engaging young parishioners in a dialogue about their names and the significance behind them. The Homily explains that names are not just identifiers but carry meaning and vocation. Mary, though given the earthly name “Mary” by her parents, received a heavenly name from God through the angel Gabriel: “Full of Grace” or “Highly Favored One.” This new name revealed her mission as the dispenser of God’s grace and the vessel through whom salvation entered the world. Mary’s Unique Role The Homily then traces salvation history . . . promise, preparation, and fulfillment . . . showing Mary’s unique role at the “fullness of time.” The Homily concludes with a call for all Christians to reflect on the meaning of their own names, especially those received at baptism and confirmation, as each name signifies a vocation and mission to live faithfully in today’s world.
