Catholic Diocese Of Joliet

During the month of the Rosary, Bishop Conlon offers reflections about "Mary the Dawn" and "Mary, the Morning Star," which are both ways to identify the Blessed Mother as the dawn announcing a great light and a star announcing the rising of the sun/Son. We need to remember that we are a light to point to Christ to show people that the real light of the world -- Jesus Christ -- is present as a source of hope and direction.
