To children of the Sacred Heart, Mater Admirabilis, by Pauline Perdrau, RSCJ, is one of the most-loved images of Our Lady. And the celebration of the Feast of Mater Admirabilis (October 20) is certainly one of the most-loved traditions in Sacred Heart schools around the world. To extend this happy celebration, Sister Helen Rosenthal has taken on a labor love by soliciting and choosing a brief reflection and image of Mater for each day during the month of October. We encourage you to refresh your memory of this tradition – or perhaps, learn about Mater for the first time – with this history of Mater. Then be sure to visit this site each day during October. Our new "Mater" button will take you directly to the reflections.
