Happy New Year, and blessed Feast of Mary, Mother of God, and Queen of Peace.

As we step into this new year, let us do so with hearts full of hope, trust, and joy, knowing that Mary, our Mother, walks with us and leads us to her Son. May she inspire us to live with courage, to sow love and peace wherever we go, and to trust God’s unfailing providence in every moment. Let this year be a time of deep encounter with God’s mercy, a year of growth in faith, and a year overflowing with joy, unity, and abundant blessings. Rejoice, for the Lord is with us, and with Mary’s maternal guidance, we shall shine His light into the world!
