MARY – AMOR DOMINI

An invocation that starts with two words inspired by Cardinal George Pell’s wish that his tombstone declare “Vehementer amavit dominum et ecclessiam.” (He passionately loved the Lord and the Church):

Amor Domini/with child/not of this world/unfailing triumph/Emmanuel.

Amor Domini can mean either Love of God or Love for God.

All praise to Mother Mary, easily the greatest mum of all time.

ECCE HOMO ALL THE WAY TO GOD

Ecce Homo.

Humanity glorified.

Bringing us to God.

I made this little movie today in The Church of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart in the peaceful village of Ross. The windows in this church were created by Melbourne stained glass artist William Montgomery.

Praise the Lord for the beautiful gift of life and all creation.

The words “Ecce homo.” (meaning “See this man.”) were spoken by Pontius Pilate to the crowd before Jesus was crucified.
