The Reed of God: Our Lady in Scripture and Devotion (Winter 2026 -Online)

At the heart of the meaning of the feminine genius is the Blessed Virgin Mary. Yet how do we come to know Our Lady well? This course will delve into the mystery of Mary by encountering her loving presence through Scripture and the devotional practices of the Church. In particular, Saint Louis de Montfort’s True Devotion to Mary and Caryll Houselander’s The Reed of God will guide participants into the wonder of being children of such a beautiful Mother. The powerful maxim attributed to Saint Teresa of Calcutta – “No Mary, No Jesus; Know Mary, Know Jesus” – will illuminate our journey all the way into the humble and hidden home of Nazareth.
