MOTHER, MARY, JUST LOOK DOWN ON EARTH



I have the urge to sing the magnificat to you, Mother of the Universe.
Your hands hold an array of blessings from your son and God the father.
Grant us all the blessings and healing you have received on our behalf.
Mother most pure, the world calls out to your sensitivity to the death.
You shed tears when unique and only son died.
This pandemic has claimed many lives and we do not know why.
Oh, Star of the sea. You, who keeps our most dear intensions within your heart,
We bring forth to you this threat, which is the corona virus.
We are down on our knees, imploring you to intercede for us to your son Jesus Christ.
Mother we are stained by sins and we know that you do not reject your children.
You intercede for us despite our color, race, ethnicity or magnitude of our sins.
Our world has lost its peace. Tears are being shed in every corner of the world.

Where are you mother Mary?

 Jesus, your son has never denied your requests.
Intercede for us as you did in Canaan.

She is humble lay Catholic woman who dedicated herself to a life of celibacy. She is a sister in a roman catholic church . She started her volunteer work by loving and caring for HIV/AIDS patients and the mentally handicapped, by providing them with food parcels, soup, bread and old clothes. She desired to adopt a child, but seeing the plight of so many abused, abandoned, orphaned and destitute children, she started an outreach program which she believed will give her the leverage of touching the lives of many more children. The need to sustain and continue to care for them grew and soon she needed someone to go into the outreach program with her because all the children she met were precious to her and she treated them with compassion and love with which precious stones are held, this then gave birth to the mission of the Look Forward Creativity Centre and orphanage which opened its doors in June 2007. who she is the founder . more…
