A special calendar of feasts for the Virgin Mary

The faithful readers of A Moment with Mary might be interested to know how the calendar of Marian feasts, which accompany most of the daily meditations, is elaborated.

We could simply have followed the liturgical calendar of the Catholic Church, with all the great feasts, solemnities, memorial feasts and other feasts of the saints in every country, that punctuate the liturgical year. Instead, because we at A Moment with Mary have the mission to make Mary known and loved, i.e. to promote devotion towards our Mother Mary, the Mother of God and Mother of the Church, and to go to Jesus our Savior through her, we have chosen to establish a daily calendar that is essentially Marian.

There are so many celebrations of the Blessed Virgin Mary and so many Marian shrines all over the world, that we couldn’t fit them all in 365 days! Therefore, we have drawn up a Marian calendar from a selection of her feasts and the feasts of her shrines in each country, to help our readers discover how she blesses by her presence a myriad of places on all the continents!
