MEMORIAL OF THE DEDICATION OF THE BASILICA OF SAINT MARY MAJOR
The Word made flesh set in stone
How many papal basilicas are there in Rome? St. Peters gets primary attention, but actually there are three more, each with its own rich history, including St. Paul Outside the Walls and St. John Lateran. The one whose dedication we celebrate today, St. Mary Major (Santa Maria Maggiore) pays homage to Mary our mother and her role in the life of her son. Pope Sixtus III built this basilica after the Council of Ephesus (431) decreed that Mary is the mother of God incarnate (Theotokas). The theology is important. Once again, the church makes clear that Jesus was both divine and human. Thus, we believe in the sacredness of human life, and we look to Mary’s unflinching love, as Godbearer and first disciple, for inspiration.
TODAY'S READINGS: Jeremiah 31:1-7; Matthew 15:21-28
“With age-old love, I have loved you.”
