392px-Albertinelli_Visitation-cropAdvent is the start of the liturgical year, a time of preparation.  Mary, our spiritual mother, is our exemplar and tutor.  By the witness of her life she instructs us in the way we should go.
Prayerfully contemplate the the ten evangelical virtues of Mary below and consider the ways in which she leads us into fuller union with her Son, Jesus.  Her never-failing "yes" to God in all situations, circumstances, trials and joysencourages us to give our "fiat" in the ordinary and not-so-ordinary events of our lives.  She has trod the path before us, and her footsteps always lead us to life on high in Christ Jesus.  
 
Most Pure (Mt 1:18, 20, 23; Lk 1:24,34) Most Prudent (Lk 2:19; 51) Most Humble (Lk 1:48) Most Faithful ( Lk 1:45; Jn 2:5) Most Devout (Lk 1:46-47; Acts 1:14) Most Obedient (Lk 1:38; 2:21-22; 27) Most Poor (Lk 2:7) Most Patient (Jn 19:25) Most Merciful (Lk 1:39, 56) Most Sorrowful (Lk 2:35)
