Our Lady Of The Sweet Wait - Priest Stole

OUR LADY OF THE SWEET WAIT

Our Lady of Waiting is a long-held tradition in the Church that says that when Jesus made his way to the Canaanite woman in the district of Tyre and Sidon, Mary stayed back and waited for him in what is now called the village of Magdousheh. While she waited, she interceded for his trip to the region of Tyre and Sidon. It’s a beautiful title for Our Lady, Our Lady of Waiting. While Jesus was dealing with the demonic possession of this woman’s daughter, Mary was waiting and praying for her son, Jesus. Beautiful!

Three hundred years later, St. Helena, the mother of Constantine, donated an icon to the Church, and it remains there to this day. This place is now called the Shrine of Our Lady of Mantara (Our Lady of Waiting). The Christian history of Lebanon goes back to Peter and Paul evangelizing the Phoenicians. If you talk to any Melkite or Maronite Catholics, you will hear that their story goes back directly to Jesus and this encounter in today’s reading.
