madonna: Mother Mary
[nom]
What does madonna mean?
In Christianity, madonna is a name that honors and celebrates Mother Mary, the holy mother of Jesus, as a virtuous and devoted woman. Around the world, Mother Mary is called by many names—Mother of God, Virgin Mary, Our Lady of Peace. She is known for her faithfulness, comforting presence, and defense of justice. She is a model of faith.
Who was Mother Mary?
As a young girl, poor and unmarried, she said yes to God. Although she didn’t understand everything, she kept walking when the journey was painful. Scripture tells us that she remained standing by the cross when others fled. Later, she became a leader in the early church. Like us, she knew sorrow, loss, and pain—and offered love and grace in return.
In challenging times, Mother Mary reminds us to trust.
Why do we pray to Mary?
In her many apparitions, Mother Mary calls us to pray for the healing of the world and the salvation of souls. As the mother of Jesus, she is also a mother to anyone who suffers, who longs for hope, who has no words. She pleads for mercy, for justice, and for the dignity of all God’s people.
Pray to Mary, and she will guide you to the love of Jesus.
Chère Mère de Dieu,
Par ton Oui à Dieu, nous avons été sauvés par ton fils bien-aimé Jésus-Christ. Ton exemple d’amour inconditionnel nous donne de l’espoir pour le véritable amour. Au nom de Jésus, nous te demandons d’intercéder pour nous et de nous aider à reconnaître ton amour maternel en nous-mêmes. Puissions-nous être remplis de l’amour qui nourrit, protège, réconforte, délivre et remplit chaque espace de notre vie de paix. Amen.
Que la présence de Mary soit bienveillante dans ta vie.
