A Classroom Chalkboard at the Faith Formation Building at Our Lady of Guadalupe Parish Del Rio, Texas

 

Written on chalkboard: 

troubled 
afraid

Personal reflection:

Many people appear troubled and afraid.

Do not be troubled and afraid because Our Lady of Guadalupe is our Mother, whose words are comforting and compassionate.

I am your Mother

By Lay Dominican composer, James MacMillan

Listen, put it into your heart, most little of my sons:

Let nothing frighten or grieve you,
let not your heart be disturbed,
do not fear any sickness or anguish.
Am I not here, who am your Mother?
Are you not under my protection?
Am I not your health?
Are you not happily within the folds of my mantle?
Do you need anything more?
Let nothing else worry you, disturb you.
