MARY-ESCHATOLOGICAL ICON OF THE CHURCH

Mary-Eschatological Icon Of The Church



After speaking of the Church, her origin, mission, and destiny, we can find no better way to conclude than by looking to Mary. In her we contemplate what the Church already is in her mystery on her own "pilgrimage of faith," and what she will be in the homeland at the end of her journey. There, "in the glory of the Most Holy and Undivided Trinity," "in the communion of all the saints," the Church is awaited by the one she venerates as Mother of her Lord and as her own mother.



In the meantime the Mother of Jesus, in the glory which she
possesses in body and soul in heaven, is the image and
beginning of the Church as it is to be perfected in the world
to come. Likewise she shines forth on earth, until the day of
the Lord shall come, a sign of certain hope and comfort to
the pilgrim People of God.
