Ave Maria!— July’s Theme: Holiness
“In order to draw souls to Himself and transform them into Himself through love, Christ manifested His own unlimited love, His own Heart enflamed with love for souls, a love which moved Him to ascend the cross, to remain with us in the Eucharist and to enter into our souls and to leave us, as a testimony, His own Mother as our Mother. The more a soul imitates Him, therefore, the more it renders itself similar to the Immaculate, the more it will grow in holiness and become divinized.” (cf. SK #1296)
