"When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple there whom he loved, he said to his mother, "Woman, behold, your son." Then he said to the disciple, "Behold, your mother." And from that hour, the disciple took her into his home (John 19:26, 27). 

This tender scene speaks to us of the depth of the Love which inspires, informs, and transforms all human love, the Love Incarnate who gives us His Mother.

We are now invited into the very relationship that she had with her Son. We can become "God-bearers" and bring Him to all those we encounter in our few short days under the sun. 

Objective: In this course, students will learn all about Mary's role as Mother. Students will learn how Mary is the Mother of God, the Mother of the Church, and our Mother. 

Mary was there at the Incarnation, Birth, Crucifixion, and Resurrection of God Incarnate. She was there throughout the often called "hidden years" in Nazareth. She shows us how to participate in the ongoing incarnation of God's Love for the sake of world; to live redemptive life by participating in the ongoing redemptive work of her Son and our Savior, Jesus Christ.

This course is suitable for all ages, including children, young adults, adults, and seniors.
