Join us for nine consecutive Mondays at The Basilica Shrine as Mary opens her arms to us so that we may obtain special graces, implore special favors, and make special intentions.
We’re all dealing with something. At times, it can even feel insurmountable. But regardless of our trials, we can find no better refuge than in Mary’s arms.
Our Blessed Mother is with us in our difficulties. She wants to wrap her arms around us and give us her help because she understands our challenges. She is our mother of comfort and hope, who intercedes for us and serves as our strength through life’s challenges and sorrow. Click here to read about the Perpetual Novena.
