ARTWORK NARRATIVE:

Traditional Prayer to the Immaculate Heart of Mary

In this image of Mary, she is pictured with her Immaculate Heart aflame at the moment of the Annunciation when she learned that she would carry the Christ child, equally Lord and man, into our world for its salvation. This supreme moment changed all moments. Below is a prayer from St. Teresa of Calcutta that asks for the blessing of the gift of Mary’s Immaculate Heart.

“Mary, give me your Heart, so beautiful, so pure, so immaculate; YOUR HEART so full of love and humility that I may be able to receive Jesus in the Bread of Life and love Him as you love Him.”
—Saint Teresa of Calcutta

May her heart serve as a model of how our hearts should love our Lord.
