On this vigil of Corpus Christi, Pope Francis offered three concrete ways to learn from Mary, who lived "eucharistically."
Greeting participants of a Syro-Malabar youth conference, the Pope reflected on Mary's example, particularly as emphasized in the theme for the 2023 World Youth Day: “Mary arose and went with haste” (Lk 1:39)
But he added another lesson from Our Lady, proposing it at the end of his address as, "one final thing":
"In the course of life, today’s fervent petitions become tomorrow’s prayers of thanksgiving," the Pope assured.
The Syro-Malabar Church is based in India and traces its history back to the evangelization of the Apostle Thomas.
