This is my favorite Feast Day as a pro-life person. How awesome to see the Holy Spirit at work within the womb!

It is also such a marvelous Feast because it is Our Blessed Mother who brings this grace to St. Elizabeth and St. John. That is why this Feast is also truly a feast of Our Lady as Mediatrix of All Grace as well as a feast of Mary as the woman who works with the Redeemer in accomplishing His work, in other words, co-redemptress.

My mother, a woman of wealth and understanding, deserted us. My mother has always been the Blessed Virgin.
