PODCAST | The Mother of the Fisherman
In this meditation, Fr. Peter Armenio reflects on Mary as the model of discipleship. From the Annunciation to Cana, Mary shows us that God’s plan unfolds through human cooperation. Her presence and intercession at the Wedding Feast of Cana not only initiates Christ’s public ministry but also reveals how our trust and obedience allow God to act. Fr. Peter invites us to see how every saint who learned to say “Yes” to God did so with Mary at their side.
Listen now to reflect on:
• Mary’s role in the Incarnation and evangelization
• Her presence at Cana and the miraculous catch
• Why she is the model of discipleship
• How the Rosary and persistence in prayer strengthen us
• The power of her maternal love in our spiritual battle
