Catholics worldwide approach Mother Mary for blessings as she is the mediatrix of grace and peace that always and only flows from Christ, Pope Francis said. Pope writes letter on how literature educates the heart and mind
“In a special way, during the forthcoming Holy Year of the Jubilee, many pilgrims will come to this basilica to ask our Blessed Lady for a blessing,” Francis said. The tradition goes back more than 600 years. Pope Martin V, in 1423, opened the Holy Door in the Basilica of St. John Lateran -- the cathedral of Rome diocese -- for the first time for a jubilee.
Francis told the faithful that the Miracle of the Snows recalled each year during the solemn celebration is an opportunity to understand the event as a symbol of grace. Saint Mary Major is one of the four Papal Basilicas in Rome situated on the summit of the Esquiline Hill.
