Mother of the Church: Rebecca Abboud

Rebecca Abboud meditates with the title Mary, Mother of the Church, sharing how Mary continues to intercede for the Body of Christ with the same hope and tenderness she offered the apostles at Pentecost. She recalls a personal moment of consolation while praying in St. Peter’s Square, where Mary’s quiet presence brought peace amid grief and uncertainty. In turning to Mary as our mother, we are invited to bring our own questions, longings, and prayers into the upper room of our hearts.
