Mary has been called by Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI as 'Star of the New Evangelization". Because of Eve's giving into temptation and Adam's failure to protect both his wife and the great gift of Eden's perfection sin entered the whole world.

Mary is the Mother of all Redemption from sin. Not a mere "instrument" to achieve God's plan, but the guarantee that what God created as "very, very good" can in fact remain good. From that goodness of heart, that purity of mind, soul and body, came the greatest Fiat man will ever know.

God provides through Mary a role model for each of us. For with the grace of Baptism and we really do have the ability to model ourselves after such sinless and perfect communion with her Son.

In the words written by the late Pope Paul VI in his Apostolic Exhortation On Evangelization in the Modern World, "There is no true evangelization if the name, the teaching, the life, the promises, the kingdom and the mystery of Jesus of Nazareth, the Son of God are not proclaimed."

Since the Second Vatican Council in the Catholic Church we have been constantly reminded that the Church is by nature missionary and that every baptized Christian participates in her missionary activity. The New Evangelization means taking this truth to heart and living differently. Mary was the first evangelizer when she visited her cousin Elizabeth. The Child Jesus living within her evoked a response of conversion from John the Baptizer in the womb of his own mother (Luke 1:41).
