In the “Hail, Holy Queen” we call Mary “our hope”. She is truly our hope, all powerful in interceding before God for our intentions. In this meditation we consider how:

• Mary shows her powerful intercessory role at the wedding feast of Cana
• She is an example of hope in her own life
• She has changed the course of history many times, including at Guadalupe, Lepanto, Vienna, and in twentieth century Europe
• We can pray to her with confidence for all our needs, both material and spiritual
• Not for nothing do we call her Help of Christians
