Scripture, Reflection & Prayer for Monday, November 21, 2011

The Gospel reveals to us how Mary prays and intercedes in faith. At Cana, the mother of Jesus asks her son for the needs of a wedding feast; this is the sign of another feast--that of the wedding of the Lamb where he gives his body and blood at the request of the Church, his Bride.
- CCC No. 2618
Reflection: In the wedding at Cana, Scripture shows us both Mary's intercessory power with her son and her ultimate message to those serving Christ, "Do whatever he tells you."


Prayer: Mary, pray to your Son for us.
