Patronal feast of the Institute

Our devotion to Mary, like that of the Church, is expressed in love, confidence, and admiration, and by trying to make our own Mary's attitude towards God and people.

Like Father Champagnat, we go to Mary as a child to its mother. By prayer, and by studying what the Church is saying about Mary, we seek to deepen our relationship with her. Her great feastdays, especially the Assumption, which is the patronal feast of the Institute, are special times for intensifying our devotion to this Good Mother.

Every day, we praise the Mother of God by reciting the Rosary, or by some other Marial prayer that reflects the mind of the Church.
