Episode 54: "Jesus, the only mediator, is the way of our prayer; Mary, his mother and ours, is wholly transparent to him." - CCC, 2674

On this special "founding day" episode, author and host Julia Monnin* shares with listeners a live recording of a class she taught recently on paragraphs 2673–2679 of the Catechism of the Catholic Church. This section of the Catechism is titled "In communion with the holy Mother of God."

"Mary is the perfect Orans (pray-er), a figure of the Church. When we pray to her, we are adhering with her to the plan of the Father, who sends his Son to save all men. Like the beloved disciple we welcome Jesus' mother into our homes, for she has become the mother of all the living. We can pray with and to her. The prayer of the Church is sustained by the prayer of Mary and united with it in hope." - CCC, 2679
