March 26 – Our Lady of the Palace (Italy, 1776) – Sinaxis of the Archangel Gabriel

Cathedrals are built in her name

All generations must call her blessed because they all receive through her whatever supernatural life and joy that is granted to them. And it is necessary that the world should acknowledge her and that the praises of God’s great work in her should be sung in poetry and that cathedrals should be built in her name.

For unless Our Lady is recognized as the Mother of God and the Queen of all the saints and angels and as the hope of the world, faith in God will remain incomplete.
