Devotion to Mary
Devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary holds a special place in the hearts of Catholics worldwide, and it is particularly significant for us at Marian College. Our school's namesake, the Virgin Mary, symbolises love, compassion, and unwavering faith—a source of inspiration for both students and educators alike.
Mary's devotion serves as a timeless example of faith, humility, and devotion to God. Her role in the life of Jesus Christ, from the Annunciation to standing by the Cross, reflects the importance of her intercession in our lives. Through her maternal guidance, we find solace in times of distress, seek strength in moments of weakness, and strive for purity in our actions.
In our academic journey at Marian College, we not only gain knowledge but also nurture our spiritual growth. Our devotion to Mary reminds us of the values of kindness, empathy, and service to others. It encourages us to emulate her virtues in our daily lives, fostering a sense of community and compassion among our students.
As we continue our educational pursuits at Marian College, let us remember that devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary is not just a tradition but a source of strength, guidance, and grace. Through our faith in her, we find a deeper connection to our Catholic identity, fostering a spirit of unity and a commitment to a life of purpose and service to others.
I encourage you to join us for the weekly Wednesday Mass and now the Meditation with Mary on Tuesdays and Thursdays lunch time (11:20) to gain deeper and more devotion to Mary our sweet Mother.
