Reflection
 68:  Article 56 of  THE DOGMATIC CONSTITUTION ON THE CHURCH
 


                                       LUMEN GENTIUM
, 1964 


Just as a woman, Eve, was involved in the arrival of Death,
so a woman, Mary, was involved in the arrival of Life

Eve's disobedience contributed to Death.
Mary's obedience contributed to Life

Adam named his wife "Eve" because she was the physical mother of all those who live.
Mary is the spiritual  "Mother of all the living"

Team D (owned and coached by Satan):  Death, drugs, suicide, abortion  etc
Team
L: (owned and coached by Jesus):  Life, respect for life in every aspect

Mary, as our world gets caught up in "a culture of Death",
please help us find our way back to "a culture of
Life" in your son, Jesus
