About St. Catherine’s Chapel
Tomorrow (June 27th) is the feast of Our Lady of Perpetual Succour, patroness of our Whanganui chapel. The Church invites us to contemplate especially on this day the role the Mother of Christ plays in our Redemption, in giving us the Incarnate Word and dispensing the graces won by Him on the Cross and entrusted into her care each moment of the day as we require them.
As an aid to this meditation, below is a brief summary of various symbolisms present in the cherished icon, followed by a prayer to Our Lady of Perpetual Help:
Our Lady’s Golden Crown was placed on the icon by order of the Vatican in 1867; it is a symbol of the many miracles performed by Our Lady while invoked under the title of “Our Lady of Perpetual Help”. The child Jesus’ crown was also placed on the original icon by order of the Holy See in 1867.
The star in the center of Mary’s Veil is indicative that she is the “Star of the Sea” who bore the light of Christ into our darkened world. This star leads us to the safe port of Heaven.
The primary initials on either side of Our Lady’s Crown are the Greek initials for “Mother of God”
The initials above the angel on the left are the Greek initials of St. Michael the Archangel.
