Scripture, Reflection & Prayer 10/6/2008

Filled with the Holy Spirit, Elizabeth cried out..., "Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb."
-Lk 1:41-42

Reflection: Jesus, Son of Mary, has no likeness among men, nor has Mary any likeness among women. He is the most beautiful of the living. She is a splendid dawn rising.
- St. Bruno

Prayer: O Mary, you are blessed among women. May all women take you as a Model of Womanhood and thus obtain greater blessings for the world from your Divine Son.
